#1: Hard afternoons work Author: Jonno, Location: Boston/Spalding LincsPosted: Sun Mar 21, 2010 3:14 pm ---- I've used todays nice weather to give the car its first proper clean this year.
Washed, 2 bucket method, with gold class car shampoo & microfibre sponge
clayed with megs clay bar and megs nxt speed detalier as lube
washed again as above
dried with microfibre cloths
megs 3 stage detailing. clean, polish, wax
megs gold class liquid wax
alloys done with the same, tyre walls with carplan silk tyre shine
wipers & b pillar plastic simoniz back to black
You may notice ive not got any autosol, so the exhuast isnt as clean as it could be.
new lights courtesy of uz, thanks very much chap.
All in all, a very peaceful and relaxing 4hours work, and one very moody and neglected gf!

#5: Re: Hard afternoons work Author: Jonno, Location: Boston/Spalding LincsPosted: Sun Mar 21, 2010 3:23 pm ---- the grill, believe it or not says 206 lol but it does look like 205 in the photo for some reason,, damn n97!
addaz, the vortex are only winter wheels, white summer wheels go on next week if i get the tyres and i was debating with rear morrettes in white, but they are a tad expensive to buy and they spray for me not to like them

#16: Re: Hard afternoons work Author: Jonno, Location: Boston/Spalding LincsPosted: Thu Mar 25, 2010 6:14 pm ---- thanks for all the comments guys and girls, makes my 4 hours feel even more worth it. Was chuffed with the final results, only the 2nd time ive ever clayed a car!
Ive done 2 grills now pug150, googles images 206 logo, copy and paste to word, fit to page, print, cut out the inked area leaving sprews to get the holes in 0 and 6, masking tape the template to the grill, black hammerite smooth, dabs of a brush rather than strokes, 2 or 3 coats and whack it on the car
Dad thought id had an accident when he came home and my bumper was on the front lawn lol
