JackG's Ed30
« on: March 13, 2011, 10:26:58 pm »
Hi guys, well here is my new car, black edition30 with 22k on the clock, I've owned it for about a week now and got some time this weekend to do some paint correction and removed all swirls and marks, I've done 3 coats of dodo supernatural and to be honest I really really rate this wax! Wasn't to sure weather it would be as good as my old swissvax (wich I lost a while ago!)
I love the car to bits, im driving really carefully and just loving the smooth drive really, loving the fuel consumption as it's not as bad as I thought it would be.
It's got all the extras, Highline, DSG with paddles, Lux pack, Xenons, Sunroof, and a few more bits that I don't really now as of yet! The first mod will be just get it revo mapped, but there going to need to do some good prices as I'm now skint  :sad1:
Then I'll start going stage 2+ and after that I may even take hoslet route but Im sure stage 2+ will do me fine!
Anyway here are some pics after a detail that I did today








Nice sealed wheels!






Love this photo, makes my paint look like space and the edtion30 Badge is a galaxy  :grin:










That is the girlfriend claying my wheels   :P








The above photo is actually the cars paint reflecting the image of the old polo!




Hope you enjoy the pics  :happy2:

 :congrats:

Well done mate. A black ED30 is awesome when clean.

TBH I've not been a fan of Supernatural. IMO even collinite 476s is better. However, will give it another try this summer.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I thought the same at first but if you use 3 very thin layers and leave for about 25 mins then it really works as you can see, I do have some 476 And it's very good! I think now it's getting warmer the carnuba in the dodo comes alive and makes more of a "wet look"

nice car that is shiny shiny SHINY ha did it take you long???

Around 10 hours, spread out over Saturday and Sunday. Washed and dried it together, then whilst Jack machine polished it, I clayed and sealed the wheels., and cleaned up and polished the exhaust. Then we both Waxed it, and I cleaned the glass, and Jack did a few finishing touches.
Deffinatly a weekend well spent  :happy2:
