  1. By that I mean, cleaning out the cobwebs and grot that no-one has bothered to shift for many a year, if EVER!
    I'll go for the moto "every gram counts" :wink:
    Picked up my new R26 F1 today and got straight into detailing the bodywork. Personally i find it's the best way to get to know a car. So it was:
    Rinse with D.O. filtered water
    De-Tar + rinse - Tardis
    Decontamination & clay bar combined rub down - Bilt & Hamber
    She was the dirtiest car I've ever decontaminated, purple runs everywhere!
    Rinse with D.O. filtered water
    Blow dry.

    Tomorrow it's a light mop and paintwork seal with Fusso Coat light. It's a pig to apply, but by God is it good!

  3. Love the old fusso myself.great product for naff all moneys. Car looks great !!
     
  4. Thanks :smile:
    I tried adding Fusso wax on top, but it’s a bitch to buff off. Then I tried the Wolfgang, “polish on, polish off” with added red it really helped with the pearl effect, let’s see how long the combo beads for.......?
