well, as most of you know, i no longer have a 206, and my fiancee has been honda daft for a while and decided to get a 1.8 6th generation honda accord (i have the 2.0 7th generation). she had a little scuff yesterday and was a little disheartened. so we got it cleaned today and she had a notion
she's 21 weeks pregnant, was bored and decided to go over the car with t-cut. so i followed close by and helped her out. (dont tell a pregnant woman not to do something when their mind is set on it)
so heres the end result
while i had the camera, i took a few of mine (which will be getting the works tomorrow)

she traded it man. it was a trader just round the road from us. he HPI'd the lude and found out it was a cat d write off at one point. which was news to marie.
so the trader is using it as his personal car now. was a great car, but she was in need of a 5 door family-friendly car

Mindnight of the 29th of June. But I will be on holiday up north in Avimore for it so i wont be roaming the north lanarkshire streets.
Back on topic, I get the impression from people on here that t-cut isnt that good but it certainly looks the dogs b******s. Alot of effort obviously put in. Well done. Weather is to be amazing tomorow too.

cheers guys. I'm not 100% on tcut either as it's quite an abrasive feeling product. most people wax and polish their cars, but the other half chose tcut to see if it would fill in some of the smaller scratches.
I'll be washing, claying, then waxing mine.
stu, I liked the 6th gen too, but I didn't want to get a car that was older than the last. and marie didn't want to pay finance so she part-x her car and some cash.

T- Cut is fine as long as you don't use it all the time - once its been t-cutted normal wash and wax should keep it looking nice - T cut works by taking a thin layer off the paint finish. hence why when i was about 12 yrs old i managed to polish a section of my dads car down to the under coat as it had been t-cutted so much neadless to say he wasn't a happy bunny lol
