witley just outside godalming mate, not really guildford i know. what about your self?

Chris

If this is in the wrong section then please feel free to move, it does have a 5.7l v8 so i thought that might count.

Spent the whole day yesterday detailing our boat. Its been used a fair bit this season and really needed a good going over so took the Kestral and some polish to see what could be done. There were some really bad watermarks and sun damage which has 90% been fixed. I would like to have spent more time on it but i was working on the floating lift which was a bit awkward and not much room.

Any way here are some pics before i started...

I dont have any during pictures but basically, used the same methods as i would a car.

and finally...

only job i didnt have time for was the carpet although that has been done now, as well as the engine bay but that is a different story.

Cheers for looking

Chris

mate i did the same thing about a month ago and just forked out £250 to have it fixed and resprayed.

nice looking sunset spotted today, thought i was the only zed in the village

cheers for the update but i still really want to see this on a silver car, ill continue looking tonight as i forgot to look some more.

Chris

Cheers

Chris

my folks are in daytona, sent them shopping! cheers for the heads up

Chris

just wondering if any body is heading up tonight to the petrol-head nivarna meet, went in june and it was a really good event.

Chris

i did the same research mate and had no luck, i just ended up buying a bluetooth headunit and using the built in mic.

sorry i cant be any more help.

Chris

it wont work mate, the controls are purely for volume and track skipping.

are you able to paint the carbon eye lids, i dont have a carbon bonnet but i do like the look of this

Im having my rear bumper done on friday so could see if he can do these as well

if they can ill take them

cheers

Chris

has anybody used these kits available on ebay? just wondering how easy they are to fit.

Chris

thanks for the tip, exactly why i practiced on a another car first. I went for the sonus kit as i read the nissan paint was soft and this was meant to be ideal. I'll be starting with a nice soft pad on the zed and taking my time, silver is a pain as im sure correction will be much harder to notice.

Chris

So after the last few years of using SRP and a few other 'products' i bit the bullet and bought the kestral DAS-6 with the sonus kit. I first started on the old micra on our drive to see how the machine worked and to get used to the speeds etc. Next job was my girlfriends 206 which she has had for about a month, i chose this as my car is silver and thought green would be an easier colour to start on. The car was a right state so i would have been impressed with any results really, although i was amazed. I went over most the car with a couple of passes of each polish/pad combination. The swirl marks have completely gone and most of the scratches too, a couple of deep ones remain but im happy with that, and she is very pleased.

Excuse me in the pictures but the other half took them while i was working. Once finished it was coated with a layer of chemical guys wet mirror finish and the car looks great.

My advice to any body thinking about buying a machine to polish their car is do it, its not as scary as its made out its very satisfying and i found it pretty enjoyable.

before

and once i got going

Chris

nice review, glad it came out on top of the beemer.

mine is in the post mate!

hi, i have a JVC KD-G 612 Car Stereo if he is interested. Everything works and i think i have the nissan iso connector still fitted if that helps. £50 Posted. http://www.amazon.co.uk/JVC-KD-G-612-Ca ... B0007UNSX4
