So you moved down to CPT ... looks like another one for Cape Town ...
still longing for that Cape Town Detail Day ....

Thanks Jughead
Yes, I must say the engine bay did come out nice.

Yes, I am still in the process of moving. I plan to be staying in the Blouberg / Melkbos area. We must definitely have a detail day - the only problem is that I will most probably only move my kit down here in July / August.

As a side note - I will need a bigger garage here - no way one can work outside in this wind

Thanks David!
Yes, the size of this thing was so big, I battled to get the complete car in the pics (even with my camera completely zoomed out)

I see now, from your example, that my main mistake is trying to do all I can in a few matter of hours on one afternoon after work and burning myself out... instead of perhaps splitting up my work into two days i.e. clean inside and tyres on one day and wash, polish and wax the next...as time nowadays is in short supply and with winter creeping around the corner the sun sets a bit more early

Thanks jagged! Yes, you really must not rush these jobs. Idealy you need the car stationary for at least 2 to 3 days but this is normally difficult, unless the guy owns 2 cars.
