So, we managed to pick our new to us car a couple of weeks ago and I got half a chance to get cracked on with some work on it to get it more like the standards I expect plan of attack with the time I had available and other things that were to be done as well (have the scree replaced & sell my other Leon) meant I'd not get any polishing done
Friday night I manage do get a full wash done, debadge it and then give it a hit with tar & glue remover and fallout before some friends came around for tea
p.s them screwfix lights are well worth their money :lol:
Saturday morning 7:30AM I was back up and at it with plans for another quick wash over and then spend most of the morning the morning claying the paint before Autoglass came to fit me a new screen. fortunately, they didn't come while 10 o'clock which was just about enough time to the front end done with another quick wash and I ended up drying it while he was still setting up. This only left me the boot lid and rear bumper to do while he was fitting the window and avoided getting the screen wet too!
No longer had he gone the buyer for the FR turned up pegging me back even further. Knowing I had to be done for 1:30PM I cracked the DA out to apply the glaze and then went over it with some Obsession Wax Dynasty (only managed to get 1 coat down)
My products used list looks like this:
Simoniz wash and wax shampoo
KKD blizzard snowfoam
KKD brakeaway wheel cleaner
AD just the tonic T&G remover
KKD FeRRUM fallout remover
Bilt Hamber medium clay
AD reaper drying towel
Demon Shine QD as a drying aid
KKD regloss
Liquid Elements red pad
Obsession Wax dynasty
AF satin
IPA @ 1:3
AngelWax H2GO
Here's a few pictures too as we all know these threads are useless without a mass of photo's so here you go
just been told I'm home alone tonight too so hopefully the bits I wanted to correct will get done under the lights
