yes mate, she'll be in better order by then, as in 2 weeks time, she's having the bonnet and front wings sorted, getting rid of those annoying stone chips once and for all.

my Detailer has plans , he wants to put the car on the Show n shine shows ... He thinks it's good enough to, but I don't think she is personally, but he's confident

What other products were used other than SRP? Do you have an arch dressing?

No the arch's werent done on this occasion, but when she had a days detailing session a month or so ago, i seem to remember the arches were sprayed with Autoglm's Black Dye, this was after they were Pressure washed thoroughly and Snow'd etc.  

 I used Megs detailing spray before i Put on the SRP, only managed to put one coat on, but it was mainly a top up.

The last Clean up she had i used the following on her..

Pressure wash car
Snow foam
Rinse.
Meguiar's V2 Dual action polisher with Meguiar'sUltimate compound
Poorboys Professional polish
Autobrite Extreme Glaze
Poorboys Blue Natty wax
Meguiar's Endurance tyre dressing
Autoglym Fast Glass cleaner
and a few other little tidying bits.

or have a look at the thread posted on DW..

There will be a thread posted once the stonechips have been removed in a couple of weeks, sort of before/after on the bonnet etc.

An arch dressing makes a big difference in my eyes. Some CG bare bones or Megs all seasons is what I normally use

Just looking at those pics on thats thread... so so clean, hard to believe its 5years old!

Everytime I see you Steve , your allways cleaning it 

However it is indeed a very fine example and when you see it in the flesh it is a stunning car

Really would like to get mine detailed but no idea on cost.

Wow! Feckin' stunning car mate! I love the details , Black mirrors , Wheels , Bra and pressed plates , all go together to make this Eddy a pure stunner! Ive got a TR GTI and feel your pain about the stonechips - I Ideally wanted a White one , I reckon if I do another 50K miles without getting it resprayed then the front third of the car will be white by then anyway!

Im gonna give the stone chip repair a go before respraying as a last resort, the paint will only be softer if your adding layers to it.

Because TR is a flat colour, its reletively easy to repair by Wet sand and Polish to get her looking more pleasing to the mind..

and thankyou for your kind words

Really like the black gloss touches, thinking of doing the same but keep in the original alloys, do you think I should paint these balck or keep grey?
