    Got some new products in the post today so i thought id share the fruits of two hard days labour!

    Washed the car and polished using autoglym super resin polish, the used chemical guys ez creme glaze and topped that with two coats of chemical guys jetseal 109 (people are raving about this stuff)

    anyway the car came up great, the glaze and jetseal gave the car a wonderful depth of shine, i also gave the interior a clean and used come chemical guys natural look dressing.

    All done by hand, i sold the pc as i hadnt time to use it!

    Good work cyrus. Looking damn tasty. I thought you'd have it wrecked by now :D

    Did you use anything on the leather?


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,049 ✭✭✭✭Cyrus


    I use gliptone liquid leather about once every 3 months!

    Good work, it's nice to see how well a bit of elbow grease can pay off.
    I spent an hour washing and waxing the fiesta on Sunday to see a lad try and piss on it twelve hours later. Little fcuker, he got his.

    Gave the car a waxing 3 weeks ago and just cleaned it down with some water and an old soft tea-towel last weekend and it came out what would be describable as "car wash clean". Nothing near the top job Cyrus has done there. But then again if I had a 5 like that I might take the bodywork a little more seriously

    Most of the stuff Cyrus used can be bought from Daragh @ www.smartcarcare.ie/catalog
    Give him a call he knows his stuff!

    all the stuff cost in excess of 150 euro so not cheap but worth it i think

    dont miss the pc cos i never had a chance to use!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,791 ✭✭✭prospect


    Not a big bimmer fan, but that is a fine job, looks fantastic.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,269 ✭✭✭MercMad


    Yeah that looks fantastic. Red always looks terrific if you spend time on it !

    You should spray some Son of a Gun, or similar, onto the plastic around the inside of the wheelarches, really finishes it off ! That way every surface you can see is shiny and clean !
