Durham North East | Andy you a polishing freak only joking tho, as it's good to see someone enjoying doing it. i for 1 hate polishing a car cerbera will tell you about a guy just along the street from him cleanining the snow of his new car with a household brush we were having a laugh that you'd be cringing and possibly give hima slap for doing it. | ||

Fish freak! MP Admin Posts: 14989 Location: Birmingham | LOL what a fool, but tbh if everyone cleaned their cars properly there wouldnt be any work for the Pro Detailers which would be a bad thing Its really quite fun with a machine as you get to see propper results straight away | ||

Elf eating dog breeder Posts: 10531 Location: Guildford | Not quite detailing but heres a bumper I painted with rattlecans, I am going to polish it again once its on the owners car as I was getting pissed off with it moving about, so at the moment its only got 4 layers of laquer, 1500'd and polished back up with g3 to then be waxed with some random crap I had laying around that was a bitch to get off but left an alright finish :| In the 2nd picture the dirt is on the bulb not the bumper | ||

Metro Mad Posts: 7653 Location: Tamworth, Staffs | cerbera - 13/2/2009 11:48 PM New car Matt ? Not quite, as pandy said its ye ol' P LON(100GTvi), I've got it for its yearly overhaul and extra's, been driving it about and it has been making me miss not having a tro anymore, just got to get all my other projects finished before I get a new tro. Back on the subject I will be giving the Tahiti MGF a going over tomorrow so it should be all sparkly like yours pandy in the pics, but also it would look gd in person as there's no rust | ||
