Poor-Boys > Polo GTI - freerider - 07-09-2008 04:10 PM

Pretty much the same process as usual was followed here, we polished with FF instead of SIP though, as the car was not bad to start with.

some befores, car was very dirty to start with:

Superb work fellas on a lovely car.

How do you allocate the different tasks on a car? Noticed that Megesh got the raw deal again by scrubbing mags and buffing while Don takes pics.


RE: Poor-Boys > Polo GTI - freerider - 07-09-2008 07:54 PM

LOL, we kind off just swap for the day, all depends on who is in what mood Bluebiggrin megesh normally calls dibs on wheels and I wash the rest of the car, he also gets quite edgy if i try and polish exhaust tips Bluebiggrin

As a matter of interest - what did you use to clean the wheels?

Great stuff, I am keen to hear what you guys think of the product Icon9


RE: Poor-Boys > Polo GTI - megesh - 08-09-2008 09:57 AM

Hey Guys,

we kinda know what job gets done by who but sometimes we swap or someone just covers if the other is still busy...

Don is always taking pics, cause uhm he the only one that brings a camera... and uhm i suck at taking photos! He actually getting quite good at it!!

I really dont think a write on the Sonax Extreme wheel cleaner is neccessary! There as been numerous post about the product and all i can add to it is that it does what it says!!! its cleans EXTREMELY well!!! wish we had a bit more because the rims on the Polo had alot of tar on it that required alot of cleaning!

All in all Carn can supply you guys with a great product that does what it says it can! Just remember that it does and an odour to it, and it aint strawberry!

Hey nice to see you here Bluebiggrin

Only a pleasure btw, just a shame you dont get the full effect of the detail on a silver/grey car Sad


RE: Poor-Boys > Polo GTI - megesh - 08-09-2008 12:10 PM

i hope the next car aint silver!!!


RE: Poor-Boys > Polo GTI - rustbucket - 08-09-2008 12:39 PM

Nice job guys. Haha, Megesh, see you also have those dreaded spots left on your arm while using the Megs wheel brush. Geeze, I get covered. As a matter of fact, I have one t-shirt that I use when washing. It looks polkadot.

Um, what you guys use for LSP?


RE: Poor-Boys > Polo GTI - freerider - 08-09-2008 12:42 PM

It was the good old trusty Chemical Guys Extreme Top Coat Bluebiggrin
