Suns out #TeamRed's out! Cleaned and polished after a two week holiday.

Another team red. Tried Autoglym's Rapid Aqua Wax for the first time.

I'm waiting for the harvest to finish around here before I get the polish out one short overnight shower a few nights ago glued a nice layer of Fenland dust over my just cleaned car plus in this weather I can't get round the car quick enough to mop up all the hard water spots.

Looking superb, that shine is so deep you could almost dive in!

Dynamic Red is 'The Bollox' and what I would have ordered if I hadn't been so impatient.
SAIC are 7 out of 10 for software but
10 out of 10 for their paint.

That Aquawax makes finishing the car an absolute breeze. ?

Being the XPWR version, I would have coloured the caliper covers, body colour.

Aaand using freshly polished #TeamRed to lift the tone of the local Lidls carpark ??

You need something like this:

Vyair Prowater 11 Litre Black Water Filtration DI Resin Vessel With Resin

Resin vessels are used for the deionisation and purification of water. This resin vessel has a capacity of 11.0 litres, and used in conjunction with DI resin can produce top quality water which is suitable for any pure water application, including pole window cleaning, drinking water, aquatics...

Great job, but you missed the tyre shine. Deduct one style point #TeamRed

I've never shined me tyres in 45 years of car ownership ( oops!) and I'll be buggered if I'm starting now ????
(It's worth a style point ? )

aaaand to be honest my 'polish' wouldn't stand upto close inspection anyway ?

I was joking, no style points deducted. It will have lifted the tone of your local Lidl. As does mine.

I do make it 4-nil to #TeamRed so far though

I did consider the idea but decided it was a step too far (along with and IBC to harvest more rainwater), I'll just wait a few more days until its dull again!

 

[Deleted member 18108]

I'm still deciding on the filtration system. I wouldn't have room for an IBC and if I had, I'd still have to find a way to camouflage it.

Just think all that crap down the drains and into your local river (poor fish).
As an afterthought here in Germany you are not allowed to wash your car on the street or anywhere the resulting water can get down the drains, which means the local car wash does a roaring trade (we have 4 in my local area) all of them have to filter and clean the water used to wash the cars before it is disposed of. Just washed and polished mine this morning, sorry no pics but it does look nice hehe.

Didn't use any crap ?.
Mine goes straight on the garden to water the plants from the wash and the polish is Turtle Wax ceramic spray coating - again, on the car, not down the drains. 1 x cloth on, 1x cloth off. ?????????????

OK Daniel-san

 

[Rolfe]

I do like the red!

That first picture reminds me, I bought fangs for Caliban and haven't fitted them yet. Tomorrow is looking good weather-wise. What's the best way to get them to stick?
