Default Good Friday Spring Clean

Hi All,

I know i've posted pics of my car before but i wanted to share my good friday spring clean.









Now the spring is here it's time to spend some money i think, i've got lots of plans but it depends on the bank manager of course :-)

Hope to post some new pics within the next month or so with a full Hayward & Scott system installed with the Jap Style rear box. You'll notice i've not posted pics with the current setup, a bit embarrassing.

Regards

Default Wax

Hi guys, thanks.

I use the Meguiar's range of products, first i gave the car the once over with the Meguiar's NXT Car Wash. I love this stuff, it drys without leaving water marks so it's real easy to run the leather over and get a nice clear dry finish.

Once that's done i use the Meguiar's NXT Tech Wax, when you buy this stuff you get a little application sponge which is cool, it helps get an even coverage. And that's about it, get a dry clean polishing clothe and then buff the wax off. Not saying it's the easiest job in the world but i've used other products like AutoGlym and i feel you need to put more effort into their products, the Meguiar's stuff just buffs off and leaves a lovely shine.

Have to admit it didn't turn out too bad, considering it was the first application of wax my car has seen in about 6 months.

Regards

It's a Prodrive one - MUCH better than the STI 5/6 ones. And as rare as rocking-horse ****

Nice car too
