The Polo was looking a little worse for wear after another week of 700 miles driving in torrential rain, dirty motorway spray, brake dust, mud.... (no before's as i forgot :wall: )

*Wash using 2 bucket method, Megs GC Shampoo and lambs wool wash mitt.

*Dried using waffle weave towel.

*Applied BlackFire Wet Diamond using MF applicator and left to cure while i washed the alloys.

*Alloys, Megs wash mitt and Megs GC Shampoo, dried with old MF's.

*Tyres and Trim dressed with Megs Endurance. Trim buffed after 10 mins.

*Arches sprayed with Hyper Dressing and left to dry naturally.

Now for the pic's taken in various locations;

Unfortunate that it was so overcast when taking the pics!

Hyper dressing is a dressing for anything plastic or rubber. i brought it from a company in the USA who no longer ship to the UK. But take a look on www.cleanandshiny.co.uk as i think they sell it.

looks very nice but i think that they are just pressed metal plates and not german

they are German font therefore they are german plates, just without the "D"!
glad u finally got ur plates sorted mate, u know the english font pressed ones i got, well i am reliably informed that they are still illegal, even tho they have english font and are reflective!! oh well they were free!!

car look fantastic dino (as always

looking absolutely brilliant mate!

What is BlackFire Wet Diamond? A type of wax?

A wee question, is it worse for the car just using a chomois or should i get one of the waffle weave towels. Am sure i got told a chamois aint the best for your paintwork?

Posted: **Mon Oct 16, 2006 11:20 am**

Blackfire Wet Diamond is a liquid wax - absolutley the best stuff i've used in a long long time!

A waffel weave towel is better than a chamois yes but you can still inflict swirls with either - just need to be uber uber careful!

cheers Dino, appreciate it. Think i'll give the waffle weave towel a bash. When the meg's wax runs out i'll try that.
