New Cleaned Pics (56K, stick the kettle on)

Post by ModifiedMadness »

Thought I'd just add a few pics of the car after it's clean yesterday, with the new show plate on, and a few showing that Silver can shine like any other colour 8)

Mmmm, shiny

Looking sweet dude!!!! :D :D

A quick question.

How long to you leave on the meguiars polish on for ?

Before removing it ?

As i tried that stuff and the NXT Tech wax stuff and after waiting for it to dry and wiping it off with a terry towel my paintwork was all hazy :(

And did you apply a wax after the polish ?

Any ideas what i'm doing wrong man ???

I hear ya, I can't understand why they didn't do it.

@RICHARD HARPER I tend to put polish on the roof, then maybe one other panel, then once I've finished applying the polish to the second panel will wipe it off the roof. Same with the rest of the car.

I use that and Tech Wax, and that's the result I get everytime 8)

I polish and then wax.

Question - where are you going to put your front numberplate long-term?

Right where it is now, the dashboard :lol:

The pics were taken at my work, and yeah the tyres are quite grippy :twisted:

Got them supplied and fitted at the place I gave you the Rubstrips. £105.05 all in
