Car looks great buddy, you must be very happy to have it back and to have it ooking nice and shiny!

 

Oh Yes, just need the 700 odd running in miles behind me, then final map!

 

Sorry should have posted before and after pic's

Matt

Will need a little " Starter Wash & polish " Kit from you shortly so i can look after Mrs ESC's new ride

If you can oblidge in supplying please ?

New car colour is White with Blue decals

Tiny

 

no problem. have a nose in the group buy section mate

 

Yeah chers matt like ythe look of those kits

But can you advise on the best produts / wax to clean a white car ?

IE - When i got my Swissoll kit for my scoob a special blend of wax was reccommmened as it was WR Blue , Those with the common ole black ones use a different sort of wax

 

PMSL

 

 

 

best bet would be to swap the wax based products out for an acrylic one mate. i'll find you the best one

 

Oh yes, it has to be much stronger to to stay attached to the car, what with black ones being so much faster

 

Thanks YVM

 

Black is the new blue

Can you send me the full size files please?



Matt,

How's the nerves holding out?

He is doing my mates F348 at the weekend and my pal is not someone who you want to upset!

 

Not too bad. I'll probably worry about it a bit more when i'm on my way there.

done a ka inside and out yesterday. Had been owned from new and never waxed. God was it tough.

 

From what I have seen including my sisters, the new KA's have seriously rubbish paint finishes.

Neil your car looks sooooo much better than the car I saw at Mocoms just a few weeks ago, you must be made up !

 

Looks like I have me own BUFTY BOY at home. Maybe this new car will get more than 7 washes in 3 years lol.

 

the ka paint was awful! such hard work for such a new car.

here's a couple of pics:

 

you know where i am if you need me though. i'll make sure he's got some good stuff for keeping it tip top though.

 

yes i know. but you know he likes to clean cars himself lol.
and he does do a great job too

 

yup, scooby was sunbathing the last time i came round

 

Yes really pleased, it's hardly recognisable as the horribly dirty car that got delivered back to me.

The engine is nearly run in, and just using it with the running in map feels really good, can't wait for Zak to map it to it's full potential, hopefully next week.

 

Matt,

What do you suggest to bring out the shine with red? It's pretty damn shiny alreay though...

 

it may need a good machine polish to restore the colour or even just a good claybar to remove contaminents , oxidization. looks like a bit of a beast! if the owner wants me to have a look let me know.

 

The photo doesn't do it justice, it's perfectly shiny with no oxidation - trust me. I think that all he needs is a wax/acrylic to really make it shine.

 

you'd be surprised about the contamination.

wax wise on my red scoob i use zymol creame or glaseur followed by mothers reflection advanced top coat.

 

He's the chap who does my machine polishing for me so has done the Lotus a few times AND its never taken out in wet weather


Do you sell the zymol & top coat Matt?
