Give me some time to get a bit of practice in and I'll do it.

Was hoping to do the Honda at the weekend but despite good weather, no other commitments and having everything ready I failed as I had a stomach bug that kept me in bed for most of the time. Aaaargh!

I see you're a "perfectionist" with the ol' PC, when the weather drys and warms up, you still up for giving my car a whirl?! :buffer: :thumb:

I've done the Honda, and should be tackling the Roc soon, so no worries. Bear in mind that I'm still learning a lot, so it wont be to the standard of many on here, but I am at least confident I wont damage your paint now!

What car is it btw?
