Washed, Waxed and new Badge

Featured Replies

Well Just got back in after spending most of the day washing and waxing my Fabia by Hand! I am now shattered! While I was outside cleaning I decided to re-spray my grille and add my new badge!

Here are a few pics, hope you enjoy :thumbup:

Excellent job - your car looks stunning. Well worth all the effort.

What wax did you use? And what other products?

I'm not usualy a big fan of red but that is stunning.:thumbup: Well done

I did intend polishing and giving the car a full claying but doing everything by hand is real hard work!

The products thou; Poorboys Super Slick & Suds Concentrated Car Wash, Meguires Ultimate detailer, Meguires clay bar, NXT metal polish, bilberry wheel cleaner and Dodo Soft Wax (Banana Armour). :thumbup:

.....and Dodo Soft Wax (Banana Armour). :thumbup:

Banana Armour is a hard wax.

I used a couple of layers of this and then a couple of layers of Orange Crush (a soft wax) on top

My bad :D sorry not sure what the difference is, I just assumed it was soft as I applied it by hand and it was... Soft :rofl:

That looks fantastic!

Looks great - red cars with black grilles FTW!

Stunning looking motor mate. Love the grill and badge :thumbup:

Really nice mate. I think the rear badge needs doing but the front looks great. :D

I think it looks great that low as well :)

Good work, looks really deep which is suprising with a glaze being used?!

Some subtle tints on the rear windows (light smoke) would really work well now with the black surround, splitter etc :o )

Looks good matey - badge works well with the black grill!

you need a matching one for the back though ;)

That's brillaint. I love it. :D

Shame about the small chip below the badge on the front grill - I presume this is a stone chip?

get rid of the fried egg look indicators and the front will look spot on!

hahaha :rofl: I wondered how long it would take for someone to spot that! And no its kinda a bad job on my part :o I peeled the chrome finish off with a Stanley blade and kind of took out a chunk there!

As for the rear not too sure whats going on there would like to de-badge but its a lot of money??? Ill give it time!
