ok, so was having a boring morning and decided i needed a project, I looked out to see Micky's Rallye, hes working away again so it was game on!! :panic:

wheels were a bit corroded, i couldn't do anything about the nasty curbing but refurb will sort that..

wash, t cut, cilit bang, rinse, polish, wash, wax:

(not 100% perfect, but better than no paint imo.)

then paintwork

wash, rinse, safe cut/megs scratch x, rinse, deep resin polish, gabs wax:

I know what you mean, car was clean until i got to wakey.. then it was filthy. Hopefully i'll be doing a couple of cars myself next week, get some practice in on the porter cable :)

You still mad for auto glym or are you moving into the newer market?
mattwesty
13th February 2007, 19:31

not keen on the interior but its a lovely motor
mattwesty
13th February 2007, 19:36
Dan - one of the best parts, hence why i tried hard with them.

connor - theres a reason the interior is like it is. "minimal" = weight loss.
