Big clean preparation

Jordan Apex · 10th April 2015, 16:46

Started rummaging earlier to see what I could muster up for my big clean which I am planning for tomorrow! It is meant to be nice from 11-12 so I will get the grimey bits done before hand!

Planning full decontamination and 2 stage correction tomorrow, then to seal the car with a ceramic sealant if the weather looks good enough! Although I imagine I will have to resort to the wax...

If anyone is local and wants some cleaning bits drop me a message, obviously some of the stuff I won't give away but I don't mind with most of it

Well the decontamination is done, it's raining as predicted, just to wait for it to stop and then dry and ipa wipe down ready for the correction

hopefully it stops in the 2 hours predicted

got a couple of quite heavy scratches I am hoping to remove but if not they should reduce very significantly

Hi Jordan, I'm sure there must be some car products that you are missing but I can't for the life of me say what!

I can name about 10 types of product off the top of my head

by the way incase it was unclear I will give away some stuff not sell it, I just won't say yes to giving everything away as I quite like the stuff I have

Good progress, sun is shining too! Come in for a lunch break and a rest of the back

only about an hour or so of work left to do and then it will be ready for brooklands tomorrow

It is! Your back must be made of titanium! I feel so old

you could have helped and got a reward

would have saved me putting holograms in the rear wing too

they're all gone now and I am done! I know it is quick to do it all, I don't have time to do a full one so it's just an improvement 2 stage

I think it taught me a lot (2nd time using the flex) and was fun

I managed to reduce a lot of the marks, quite happy with the results to be honest, definitely not a pro but oh well

pictures to follow soon

Will start the thread with pictures of specific marks I wanted to focus on For obvious reasons!

Supervinnie40 · 11th April 2015, 16:02
