  1. Yea I've seen you do yours quite frequently, you're a braver man than me. I was thinking every 2-3 years with hand detailing in between I'll definitely be trying the bathe+ when my current shampoo finishes you've mentioned it a few times
  2. Lol fair enough The way I see it if your wash technique is good you don't need to machine often so I don't plan on using mine regularly
  3. Thanks for that The main reason I avoided buying a DA for so long was knowing what polish and pad combination to use as a lot of the write ups I have read use 2 sometimes 3 pad/polish combinations. I've always wanted a simple but effective detailing regime Also I've read several times that you can't cause any damage with a DA but according to that last paragraph you can
  4. Cragus on here recommended the UC. He used it a few times on his ebisu black zed so I thought it was pretty safe for Lexus paint. Turned out fine in the end lol Also I hear about other polishes like auto glym SRP being a waste of time What polishes would you recommend for getting the job done and not risking any damage?
  5. Definitely Until now I had only used products by hand and although they do make a big difference they just give more of a clean from what I know. You can't really see the swirls in these pics but there is a huge improvement
  6. Rear wing before, rear door after, then after with both and replacing the scratch with a puma logo
  7. Front wing before machine polish, bonnet after
  8. Bootlid before, rear wing after. Shows the colour change
  9. Some before/after pics Driver side of bonnet and headlight clayed, and passenger side done
  10. Got myself a DAS6 and finally got round to detailing the family car Had planned this for around 3 years and with it going up for sale thought I better pull my finger out Also got a clay cloth a few months back, first time for that too. Definitely speeds the process up but not as good with stubborn spots as a clay bar Washed and clayed, machined with megs ultimate compound, waxed with DJ purple haze, and a quick detailer for a more glossy look
  11. I'll stick a fiver in and give myself 10 guesses but the rest will come later. New nsx and LC500 were good calls but he's ruled out the nsx 1. Aston Martin V8 Vantage 2. Aston Martin Virage 3. Aston Martin DBS/9 4. Jaguar F Type 5. Bentley Cont GT 6. Corvette C7 7. Dodge Challenger Cant think of anything else that isn't German or Italian unless he's going for a high powered SUV to replace the shogun?
  12. With iOS you just tap the top of the screen it takes you straight there are android still playing catch up
  13. I don't think anyone is complaining sounds more like constructive criticism if issues arent raised they can't be improved on
  14. There's only 2 things I can think of that need changed i agree completely with marzman that the sentence to describe the post makes it a bit long winded. Before it was the name of the last poster and the forum the thread is in, bullet points rather than a sentence. And the OP has their avatar on the thread so you know who started it the other is the lack of a capital letter at the start of a new paragraph. Sounds pedantic but it messes up the autocorrect as well, as if the enter button doesn't leave a gap so should be an easy fix? ive found the forum quieter since the change but I think people are picking up on the changes now and it feels a bit more lively
  15. Agree with the above. Doesn't flow as well but has some nice touches like the photo upload and notification that someone else has posted while you type I've not been on as much but more so now that I'm getting used to it. Was the same with the last update- I don't like change lol but once I was used to it I was fine Also why does the autocorrect not have a capital letter at the start of a new paragraph when using iOS? Petty I know but maybe I'm missing something

    https://www.motor1.com/news/177065/bmw-z4-concept-leaked/ I think it looks great, hope the supra turns out as well
  18. Man you don't give up easily do you Alex lol So it's not German or Italian, won't be American as they won't handle to your standards, can't think of anything jap that will top that GTR and it doesn't sound like you're downgrading.... Give us a clue at least!
  19. I'd be surprised if it was another Nissan, would need to be the top of the range GTR (nismo?) and after this long im sure it would be something different
  20. So he's liked mine and Colin's posts about the new car but still not replied... Keeping your cards close to your chest Alex- you're worse than me Better not disappoint us now lol
  21. Sorry to hear that. I lost my dad last year after a long illness, not easy watching a parent being unable to walk, talk, move Wishing her a speedy recovery
