Npinks has loads of time to polish and detail his motor, it is usually sitting on the drive immobile waiting for the LRA guy to turn up

Can't do much in the hour they take to call out, and i don't have a jetwash on the hard shoulder

anyway my cars running fine at the moment [touching wood smiley] Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I'm in possession of a swirl free car at the moment , it has been washed once (pressure) so no contact with the paintwork just yet, I'll stick with that regime as long as I can. What would you advise for a simple to apply 'wet look' finish after washing?

Also do you know any 'bricks and mortar' based suppliers for high pressure snow foam applicators? I'm not sure what the fitting is on my Wickes branded powerwasher so could do with taking the lance into a shop to see what fits it. Stornoway Grey GS ... What a fine motor ... but not any more ... ... psst look at my gallery!

Not sure on where to pick up a foam lance, you could try looking at the suppliers section on DW and look at location as see if they allow collection I think wickes are lavor connectors

best quick product I have is DODO Juice RedMist after fully drying your car you spray on wipe off leaves it looking great

JKP can sort you out at forum prices

Or Autoglym Aqua wax no where near as good but can be used during the drying process if your drying with a micro fibre towel Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

My impulse got the better today

4x 17" wheels and tires bought to add some sort of All terrain tyre if I decide to take the car off road again

didn't want to risk the 19's after seeing valetec  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Are you going to carry a trolley jack and a couple of F1 pitstop guys to change the wheels everytime you approach a kerb?

The mathematical answer is:- (19+17)/2 = 18" wheels

How do you intend to protect the painted bits along the door sills and front and rear areas under the "bumpers" They look very vulnerable to scratchy terrain on the latest FL2’s

My guess is you will never take it real off roading for fear of a scratch or two  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

Nice collection of Gloss-it

I've added a few of these to my collection....not as many as yourself. Not had a real go with them as yet. Still trying out my SV pro and Menz 203s

I am sucker for a discount
