Quite impressed with the we’ve managed to hijack this thread.... sorry stan! I have bathe+ and was looking for a new detailer as well so might go with the wetcoat Quick question re bathe+, I get really odd streak marks if I do t dry it straight away. Almost like someone has tried to airbrush some flames onto the paint Only used a small amount of it in a full bucket but didn’t measure it am I using too much?

It’s gloss red so yep looking for a slick gloss On the first detail I did clay, poorboys black hole, then the nattys blue. The black hole left a nice finish but couldn’t see the difference after the wax Its due a machine polish which I’ll do at some point this month but looking for a decent wax to top it off. Unless I go down the ceramic coating route The first wax I used was megs tech wax which is still the glossiest I’ve used yet Dodo juice purple haze gave me excellent water repelling but was still less glossy In summary, yes I want glossy

Looks good. I was more concerned about the finish on a dry car than beading Is the auto balm a sealant? @ilogikal1 how did you find the blue wax compared to others?

Ah ok I didn’t know that. I’ve got the blue one. Bought it on polished bliss I think, that was the only one I saw when looking didn’t see any others

Which nattys paste wax? I didn’t realise there were different types, thought there was just one. I’ll check

Pics? I bought nattys paste wax after seeing it mentioned a few times. Easy to apply but didn’t have a glossy finish like most waxes. Least glossy wax I’ve used, didn’t like it

Ok thanks I’ll check the size tonight

Yep but it’s different to the exterior badges. Smaller and flat from what I can see

Anyone have one lying around? For a 350gt so needs to be a Nissan badge not a Z. Mine came with an Infiniti badge but it doesn’t fit well Asked Asad but he doesn’t have these badges

When I’ve forgotten to add something into a for sale thread I’ve been sent messages asking me to edit. As col says it’s probably just been missed with other things going on for admin pm @SuperStu he will probably locate it without you having to retype it

I booked Japfest Donington instead. Was tempted by trax but went with the all jap show and hopefully better weather than October Only 5 on our stand and the majority from Scotland

Did a bit on the battery cover and surround, will do the same to the brake fluid cover when I source one Needs a bit more work before lacquer but happy with the look so far

https://www.350z-uk.com/topic/124028-engine-cover-project/?do=getNewComment Been playing around with spray paint in the engine bay

Wanted to do something with the engine cover as it’s bugger than the zed and takes up a big chunk of the bay Went for a jap theme with rising sun but not white, wanted to keep with the red and black theme. Had a look online for some ideas and then youtube videos for the effects with paint using plastic bags Drew the ninja myself and used it as a template Sanded down briefly, clear primer, red base coat, black once masked up, added effects for that graffiti look Some touching up and lacquer next week. Well chuffed with the results. Will extend onto the battery covers

I was gonna say Skye lol. I’m thinking of doing Arran when we have a nice weekend forecast

Behind the spokes is a no for me. If you don’t have deep dish wheels I’d give it a miss

This On a standard car with aftermarket wheels, or a clean modified car it would look wrong. Saw it on a drift car and it worked, can’t find pics

I meant on the outside of the wheel not behind the spokes

Depends on the car/wheels/sticker. That looks naff but it can work Would look better on a wide dish

I had a similar issue (G35), no EML for ages, eventually it came it and it was the camshaft position sensor On my zed the same sensor went and symptoms were a bit different. It would lose power for a split second then drive fine, but didn’t cut out. EML came on immediately Zed was manual, G is auto. Not sure if that’s where the difference lies?

Davey you’ve got a few hours of daylight. Go wash the car 5 times and see what happens

Zeds. But the deadline for stand passes was Thursday. Might be worth emailing them if it doesn’t let you book on

Are you forgetting Ansar

@teejay @Jay84 @secretstar07979 Deadline for tickets is tomorrow at noon 3 of us travelling down from Glasgow for this, tickets and hotels booked Stu has mentioned login details to get booked on
