    Surprisingly; he doesnt have to use too many detective skills; he finds it on the driveway every morning!

    They are a fine car; wouldnt mind having one for a weekend to see how good they are!

    Redid the F31 I protected earlier in the year, this time with a Ceramic Coating on the body, calipers, wheels and the exhaust. Some of the trim received a Trim Restorer/protectant.

    She was fairly manky from the trip down from Tip, these photos are from just after the wheels were cleaned.











    Some photos of the work in progress, wheels all cleaned and ready for coating:









    Finito:

    My little Polo run-around was in a pretty bad way so i went in hard with lambswool head and tetrosyl vm compound cos I have it for bodywork. Ran over it with AutoFinesse Triple on the da after.







    Nothing to be proud of but it freshened it up nicely! Gonna colour code it next.

    A quick wash after it being covered in dead flies. I also use a fallout remover, and apply the car shampoo using the snowfoam lance. Next time its due a clay bar, polish and wax.
