When you die you're going to haunt that room aren't you Kinder?

Probably :D
 
Hey all!

So last wash, the dreaded water spots returned.

A quick water PPM test soon confirmed:

So time to replace the old water filter resins

New stuff, direct from manufacturer rather than the 50% markup raceglaze add...

And back to how it should be :D

No water spots guaranteed

First lot of products up for grabs if anyone wants them otherwise going in the bin, all bottles are ~half full. A clay bar unopened (megs) and a clay bar sponge thing.

I went to look at two GT-Rs the other day. A 09 and a 10. Both had rather odd spots of rust / corrosion just below the driver's side wing mirror. The dealers said it's quite a common issue. Have you had any similar problems, Kindai?

Depends on your luck of the draw if it develops or not, it is a known manufacturing defect on the doors and the boot lid joins, it is covered by Nissans 12 year warranty as long as door is still original paint. I haven't suffered from it personally, but can put you in touch with the top guy who can sort it all for you if you buy one with that issue/it develops.
 
Looking mighty mean as always! :D Love it

I will take the unopened clay please if it is still up for grabs? Something my detailing arsenal is missing (only got a clay mitt, which is decent, but would be cool to try a clay bar also to compare) :)

Trust me your address.
 
Loving your attention to detail Kindai! Also glad you got your name back :p

Edit: if nobody else wants the autoglym stuff I'll take it off your hands rather than you bin it.

Which ones, SRP + EGP or UDS, they are mutually exclusive as UDS is an AIO product. :) Trust address.
 
All 3. Use srp with my current wax on the porsche but yet to try egp or uds.

I'll drop you a trust.
