Apologies chaps, you are indeed correct. It just looks 'wrong' Looks like I'm not the only one;) Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta, not paired/handed? cheers Chris

Very nice indeed, as said on the DW thread. Mater - you've got your offside rear tyre on the wrong way round!..directional tyre facing the wrong way:rolleyes:

16/20 here:thumbup:

Sonus Der Wunder Microfiber Drying Towel Chamois These are my preferred drying towel of choice, although the Miracles are also very good.

Looks like there will be a few Skodas in the carpark! ...I'll be there, this was pencilled in the diary a few months back:rofl: -
There's always some of this or Lifeshine / Supagard on eBay:thumbup:

Anyone in the South West good at detailing?

As posted on DW, looks spot on HC:thumbup: Think I'd have washed the car first then done wheels/arches to save the 'bagging';) ..Must give mine a quick wash in my lunchtime tomorrow:rolleyes:

R8 in Blue with a carbon blade:thumbup:

Available from any good motorstore...even Halfrauds!..to be fair the Megs ones aren't that bad.

Yep, some of the so called 'premium' wax manufacturers recommend applying via hand but you'll use soooo much less if you use a sponge applicator and you can put down such a thin layer that removal is a breeze...purely marketing IMO as you use loads more and will obviously finish a pot off quicker:rolleyes:..alas spending more of your hard earned. Going back to 476S, some of the 'ingredients'/chemicals in it's make up don't lend themselves to baby soft hands...think of it as the opposite of a Nivea handcream;)
-
I hope you mean a sponge applicator pad by hand rather than by pad & machine?!...certainly wouldn't want to be spreading 476S about with my palms:eek: As has already been said..2 coats should see you a good few months of top drawer protection/beading.

It's only the 'older' single stage solid reds that used to fade..read..Corsa, Punto, MR2 spring to mind. You should find the Corrida red has a clearcoat so no chance of fading issues.

Looks good in the pics:thumbup: In answer to the above....not very long @ all!

The Strad' is infact a 360 not a 430:P:thumbup:

New bulbs- before and after pics
Chris_VRS replied to Stevoraith's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk I (1999-2007)
I can throughly recommend the following for a sidelight upgrade, soooo much brighter than the blue vision 501's. 501 LED Super Bright White 1W (pair) :: LED sidelight and side repeater bulbs :: LED Exterior Bulbs :: Autobulbs Direct Ltd - Xenon bulbs, car bulbs, wiper blades, headlight, Osram, Ring, Philips Nightbreakers here - H7 Osram Night Breaker +90% 12v 55w bulbs (pair) NEW! :: H7 Bulbs :: Upgrade Xenon Headlight Bulbs :: Autobulbs Direct Ltd - Xenon bulbs, car bulbs, wiper blades, headlight, Osram, Ring, Philips -
Yes agree with the above...don't let the dealer do anything with it apart from remove any transit tape. I can recommend Gaz - Detail My Ride - Detailing in Solihull and West Midlands Top chap and could advise you exactly what would be required subject to seeing the car:thumbup:
-
SRP (Super Resin) followed by EGP (Extra Gloss Protection) leaves a very nice finish:thumbup:
-
I have some of these in the Fabia....really good & make such a difference over the standard bulbs. 501 LED Super Bright White 1W (pair) :: LED sidelight and side repeater bulbs :: LED Exterior Bulbs :: Autobulbs Direct Ltd - Xenon bulbs, car bulbs, wiper blades, headlight, Osram, Ring, Philips
-
Saw one of these in town yesterday..in Jag Racing Green, as above really - nice looking as long as your not viewing from the front! ..oo driven by the token old man too, will that ever change?

Yeah peanut butter to get rid of any wax residue from the plastic then I'd go with some Black Wow which leaves a stunning & durable finish to plastic. Black Wow is available here - http://http://www.carnaubawaxshop.co.uk/black-wow.html
