Lambchop Vs Lamchop
#1
Hi All

So being a awesome day and a public holiday to make it even better
I decided i was going to wash my car and give the CG Black light a go

Needless to say it didnt just end with a wash and product application

I foamed the car down using my trusty foam lance and removed the lSP etc etc

I then felt the bonnet and it was pretty grubby to say the least
so I ended up claying the car down
washed and dried the car again and used the "light of truth" on the new girl

I sent these cruddy Blackberry pics off to Stax ( BIIIG Mistake )
he sends me a message back - " Why is that paint hazy?"
Now i know it wasnt great myself - The car has never been polished and i like it that way, On the other hand i was itching to give the paint some tlc to get the gloss back

so out came the Festool on a yellow 3m Pad and Menz FA

Took me about 1hr to give the car a once over
