How did you get on with this mate?

Howdy all, Managed to get some cleaning time on her. Here's how she sits with Zymöl Glasur for paint, Poorboys (hate this) for the wheels, Chemical Guys VRP on the tyres and Aero 303 on the engine..pics of that later... ...no good image of the wheels as I've still to refurb them. I was...

May have done this today... Sorry about the dirty wheels...

Nice! Welcome!

Desperately trying to coax the Mrs into letting me do the badges etc this weekend...I reckon she's having none of it. lol I even threatened to do all her stonechips too ha. I want to take the diffuser off and do that, is that a big job guys?

As per above. Get the paint as clean as possible first and it will look better and last longer. The general rule of thumb is that the top layer will only really last MAX as long as the layer below. So if you use a wax and then sealant, the sealant will 'drop off' as soon as the wax does...

Thanks buddy!!! :proud:

Iron X is a good step to do man. I though it would be worse but seeing as all that white on the trim (compound residue) I guess a lot of is was polished out. That's why if you're using certain compounds/polishes, it's best to tape up the trims :)

Added a few pics of the process. I'll have a go at getting some proper pics this weekend. Also, I filled in the curb marks on the wheels with matt black paint just to hide the silver until they get refurb'd.

For a track car it would be great but may be a bit too much for the road. Satin or gloss black would look stylish :)

I will get them up ASAP! :)

So, I managed to get the weekend to do he car...the mrs decided to go shopping! WIN For those who are interested, the process: (pics to follow when I can grab them) Foamed with AutoFinesse Avalanche. Good product if you need some good TFR breakdown and don't mind it a bit thin...

I don't think so mate, it's got AC rather than climate control. :^/

Thanks all! Just been out for a drive and it is really nice to be back in a Clio again...It's very different to turbo power...hmmm *sparks idea* Ha, must. not. turbo.

Second this. Great tyre, random track choice. Is it like a super stock type thing?

;) Thanks everyone! I'm not sold on the side skirts really...who knows. I know the plan is carbon splitter on the front eventually and maybe bonnet if I can stretch to it. The spoiler is a MUST. Once I've sorted out the cosmetics and mechanics of what's on it now, then I'll start chasing...

Thanks guys! At first I was not sold on the front splitter but I like it now. Really excited to get the mirrors badges and splitter gloss blacked

Hey, Here's the start of my thread, It's going to be getting her back up to scratch so detailing, paint etc and then some performance mods later on. Here she is: More to come this weekend. Peace.

Getting excited now... I can see her from my flat. I'll stick a diary/project thread up soon. :)

Same, do love a ps3's. I'll be on them after the ef1's
