I did have the Auto Finesse Green Drying towel but that has stopped absorbing as much water now, and it leaves streakes etc on the paint. I have now ordered an in2detailing Drinker drying towel. Very well priced and very well reviewed.

Sorry Shuv, no pics I'm afraid! I do have three days off this week and I will be solely polishing the car so I might get some shots then. Just one picture from this weekend's clean! DSC_0159 by Gregory Berry, on Flickr DSC_0146 by Gregory Berry, on Flickr

I think my next one will be a Revo but in no rush to spend £££'s. £15 for fuel and £5 for a glow plug is fine for me for a few months :P Already did a tester today. It was so nice I didn't really have to wait for the paint to dry. 10-15 minutes and they were dry in the sun. Hole punched...

Traxxas T-Maxx :) I've had it for 11 years and it hasn't been started in 6. Pulled it out, cleaned it and it started first time. Goes like stink still, but can't match the newer stuff that does 70+ mph :p

Oh how I love sunny Sundays... Nothing of note has changed, apart from new shiny battery covers and a full clean of the engine bay. Got 3 days booked off at the beginning of April, and after the test run of polishing today, I am feeling confident to take on the stone chips. Then, with my...

They look like the bright ones but the gap between the beginning of the text and the end of the bullet looks far too short? I guess there is only one way to find out ;)

I have been tempted by Rhine Tape off eBay. I need some for the door sills and the left over can be heated, fitted and then painted?...

I did try Plastidip a few months ago and while it looked good (apart from the satin look like you say), I found it didn't stand up to regular cleaning as it kept peeling at the corners where it gets thin. I think they do a Glossifier but reviews are pretty lack luster I think. It looks very...

In lieu of anything major happening (apart from its weekly wash and wax), I want to do things that don't cost a lot. I have wanted to spray the side bullets since I got the car, but I have been hesitant as if the paint runs, the bullets are effectively ruined as removing the paint without...

I got NFP from them when I ordered my gearbox oil. I've been using it for a few months and have not had any issues. It won't cause any issues, as they are both high quality oils. Next time, I'll use Redline or Castrol for a change.

Replaced the headlight yesterday which actually went well. Motor swapped over easily and bracket was attached the new headlight. Checked all the bulbs and they were working fine. Come to drive tonight and bam, dipped bulb out... The one sodding day I don't carry my small socket set is the day...

Inch in the bottom of the lance, topped up with warm water and then the dial turned all the way to - works well

Awesome product, so excited that i went to the pressure washer on the way home from work. Car was clean from yesterday but I didn't Sonax it so there were a few non protected parts, mainly the lower sides and rear. Rinsed the car and then sprayed it all over, 1 or 2 sprays per panel and then...

Looking forward to giving this a try later!

15 months. Then: Now:

It's just been announced at the Geneva Auto Show. Only a concept though :(

May I also recommend http://www.cleanyourride.uk/ and https://www.sample-this.co.uk/ to get sample sized detailing products... ;) I may have just spent a small fortune through them tonight :/

Another idea is finding a place where Shuv and his family like going (seaside, woods etc), and maybe looking into getting a plaque placed on a bench. All the benches in a seaside town down here are getting new benches and the council are allowing applications for plaques? Just a thought...

If anyone has any large DSLR size pictures of 197's/200's/200T's) that you might like to feature, you can send them to me and I will see what I can do. It would be best if they were the RAW image file, in the original size that way I can tweak them. You can host them on Dropbox and then I...
