Full on clean, collonite content***Pic heavy***
« on: March 17, 2009, 06:51:25 am »
Well it was forecast nice weather for the weekend so thought I would start a good clean on the car. I started friday about 1pm below in order of job.
Friday
Rinsed car with P/Washer
Soaked with Snow Foam and left to dwell for 10 mins
As no 1
Soaked wheels with heavily dilute Megs S/Degreaser and aggitated with wheel brush 
As no 1
TBM wash with Zymol auto wash and Megs MF mit
Saturday Morning I started again
Clayed with Sonus green - lubed with diluted CG extreme Maxi Suds 2
As no 1
Rotory polished with sonus polishing pad and Megs #80
Rinsed off once more just to get rid of the dust and polish
Sealed with Megs #21
Waxed with Collinite 915 Marque D' Elegance & a Megs applicator
 Sunday
Waxed again second coat of #915

Im sorry I only have after shots not progress pics or befores but it wasn't that mucky any way.

Saturday

Wow looks lush.

Am absolutely lovin' the completely black front of the car - it's something I've been toying with the idea of but haven't committed. Biggest issue for me is removing the GTI badge is a permanent change.

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

How come? You can just go to a dealer and buy a replacement for £20 to put back on the car when you sell!

Because you'd have to modify the grille to get rid of the bit where the badge is stuck, otherwise it just looks funny.

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