Clay bar time The dirt off one panel Beading up after the clay bar. No wax After the 2nd round with the polish Oh look its me :afro: Still got some swirl marks :( And the final look And all tucked up ready for tomorrow I didn't use sealant or wax in the end as there were too many swirl marks and scratches and I'm not sealing them in until I've hit them with a machine polisher first

Well after she decided to spring a fuel leak on thursday I spent most of today fixing it. First off I had to take a trip to DG to get the replacment fuel lines off of Ed's ( Mr Sand's ) old vr, was a peace of cake taking them off. Then had to drive all the way home to do the same again on my car, which wasnt so easy. took me the best part of 3 hours to fix it all up and get it working again. But no more fuel leak :D Couldnt see where on the old pipes that it was leaking from :scratch: , dam cars who would have them ey? ---------- Post added at 05:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:30 PM ---------- Also spent £50 on cleaning products for the summer :D
