daveparkin Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Well, I made a first visit to the ZedShet today, and let a Jedi Knight loose on my car to find some shine.... ....but the results will have to wait for Wasso to upload them, or me to learn photobucket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see ya Dave, had a great day with your wealthy supplies of grub and drinks. Just been out for a meal, so photo's will either be tomorrow or Sunday, but more than happy for you to post a few if you wish. Your Zed turned out rather nice I must say.

Good to see you all, too Ian, Chris and Bob! Don't know about wealthy supplies - just a camping coolbox full of drinks and sarnies - but you're welcome all the same, it was the least I could do Thanks again for the hard work - the car looks better than it ever has since I've owned it. Spent the whole evening on the web now pricing-up polishers and waxes. I always said I didn't have the dreaded zeditis Hope to meet-up again soon, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 It was with heavy heart we waved goodbye to Wasso in his stunning example of an azure 350z at the end of his tour. We spent the last day together on "The Bitch" after much drinking of coffee and Wasso saying Hmmm (Buster and I have learnt the "MMmmmmmmmmmm" is good "Hmmmm" is bad ) followed by some tests on smaller parts we decided that a 6 step process was the way ahead - 1. Wet Sand 1200 2. Wet cut with some rather cool 3000 grade cutting pads 3. G3 Cutting compound with the rotary 4. Medium compound (Ian help me out can't remember this one) using the DA 5. Ultra fine compound again with the DA 6. Wax we only fully completed 3 panels but the results are superb even Wasso managed an "Mmmmmmmmm" Couple of pics for your enjoyment - Great to see you again Wasso, no idea how you managed the hours you spent on all those cars after those late nights! Looking forwards to your next tour already O and you know you said you had everything? well .................................. No you didn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 Thanks Ian, an epic 7 days that, lots of elbow grease and pinkness combined to make a lot of south east Zed owners very happy. The rain is just beading off the Zed at the moment ... looks stunning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Oh Damn!!! You hid it from me Since our epic day of polishing Flat paint (no lacquer) I was quite impressed with our efforts today, great team work and if you ever want to give up computers I'd be more than delighted to work with you detailing. It was a sad moment today I've made a really good mate, along with a family that is truly bonded and welcoming. I was treated to the finest southern fish and chips, restaurants, alcohol, coffee, sandwiches (Dave Parkin ) and copious amounts of fun and chats until the VERY early mornings. I'm truly grateful for you to house me for 4 days. The Zed Shed Rocks!!!!! To all who wanted a detail, I thank you for your business, banter and cold drinks and lunches etc. I have to say it was Damn Hot in Richmond!!!!!!! Thanks to all, a further tour will be planned hopefully for the end of August. So anyone who wishes for a detail pm me. I must also say, there's been some great Zeds that I've worked on, and one particular Zed that I was allowed to have a drive with ( Will ) I can still remember those great twisties, they were superb. I'll post up a little later the before and after pics with finished gallery, cheers all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 There's going to be a slight delay with pics. My allotted time has been eaten up by spending 2 hours trying to print boarding cards on the Ryanair website that has now eaten up all my time for picture loading. I'll be claiming for a new laptop in anger for throwing the passports at the keyboard and breaking 2 keys due to having to enter our details 14 times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 So finally I get some time to upload the 992 photos to Photobucket! I'll be posting full threads for each vehicle once I've activated my Pro Trader status for Pristine Detailing, which will occur in the next week or so.
