That looks great Berger. Got a pic of the full car now its been buffed up?
Ive not done the full car yet
I have done approximately 1/5th of the bonnet to a full correction that im happy with (the #105). However I may try another pass with #80 ontop of the section already done with #83 and see if it gives me a similar result to that achieved by the #105.
Im going to decide on some harder clay than Sonus green, order that and clay the whole thing, remove a little tar from the sides if there is any. As of yet I have only clayed the bonnet and the roof as they are usually the worst offenders.
Then work either under gazebo or in my girlfriends parents garage if I can squeeze the car in there and do it panel by panel starting from the front.
Need to get it MOT'd now as it expires this weekend.
quoted for the innuendo.
Thanks for the chuckle before bed!
Tasty!
I'd hate to be the washmit that goes over that
Mine has not had a wash for a few weeks and seen almost 1k of rainy/dusty/damp motorway! Also going to shampoo the interior and boot as the boot smells of an industrial yard and is leaking into the cabin if the rear windows are open :O

ive washed mine once since early May. in that time ive been to lemans and back. dont thousands of miles
I guess thats the advantage of owning something you are not bothered about, you don't need to sink time into keeping it looking nice.

i do like keeping mine nice and clean but everyone takes the ****. Even people that have only done 3000miles in there car since may 2008, and wash per mile they've washed it 10x as much as me but they dont seem to understand that i do generally 1000miles between washes, oh and i aint got a garage to keep it in. Then i got the other kind of mates that have 10 year old cars, with dents in all the panels and think im stupid for keeping mine clean. Oh well lol.
I washed mine after a month (not due to lack of love, just life getting in the way) and shockingly all those bits i thought were fly remnants, are actually stone chips, the bumper is peppered.
The upside of this is work have agreed to let me get the front end painted, along with all minor dents/dings/scratches fixed.Downside is that I will only have the car for 3 weeks, and then its onto dull Diesel-ville.
And Mrk, you take anal to the next level
