Well today I spent a lot of time outside and gave the car a nice wash, then put two coats of Black Hole on and then a layer of Purple Haze. When Rich did his thing to it he put on a coat of Black Hole on and Autosmart Wax amongst the other things so he did all the hard work really, but it really does look spanking now

Here are a few pictures from random places in West Oxfordshire.

















New background pic for work I think







I'm currently sporting the hair Waiting to get paid so I can get someone to take a hedge trimmer to it



It got rather warm today



That's all, I hope you like

Cheers Ben J, I've always preferred them too, although admittedly I'd have a B as a track car if I had the money for it!

Ben G - Yeah it does a bit mate, it helps fill in swirls etc Obviously it's not an all-in-one miracle product that will make it look like it's been detailed, but it does make a massive difference. But you have to remember to put wax over the top as it will just wash off otherwise.

I do very much Rich Although I must say one thing, I don't know if it was me failing at waxing or something but I think somehow I've made holograms It probably doesn't help that it was rather hot when I was trying to get the wax off

Generation - It's a CS special

Cheers for the positive comments guys, it makes it all worth it

Too right Wooly I've been washing my car weekly (apart from one or two weeks) pretty much since last year's PVS And maybe even before then So it sometimes it looks a bit rugged on Fridays, but by Monday it's always sparkling again

Yep it'll be shadowing from the oils, probably in the wax. Should improve on next wash or with a wipe down after a wash with that Spray & Wipe. Failing that, it'll need a hand polish.

You saw how much I struggled in the heat last time round lol.

Ahh cool, I did try attacking it with the Spray & Wipe but it didn't really go away. Didn't know if it was because of the heat.

Yeah that's true The foam pad felt like it was on fire when I was doing the roof

My cleaning product collection is extensive enough for the time being I really need to spend my small pay packets on things more important than cleaning now

Oh btw - Remember that bottle of Sour Power I bought from you at last year's PVS? Well it still has a quarter left Meant to show you when you were here but forgot
