So guys, when I'm sitting at lights and drive off there can be a knocking sound that feels like my accelerator but not after a long drive yesterday it can happen any time! Usually accelerating at any speed on straights and into corners. Sounds like its coming from the front but not sure whether it's the passenger or driver side. Help?! I've searched and searched but no ones problems are exactly like mine!

So being a complete newbie at looking after my cars paint I've a few questions.. Can I glaze and seal together? If so, what order? And just to clarify, a glaze covers some imperfections in the paint whereas a sealant protects the paint from tar etc? I have never looked after a car extensively before so I would quite like to learn properly! -
Dilute some Dylon and roller it on! Although I personally haven't tried this lol

Hi guys! I've been using a panel pot of dodo juice light fantastic and it's finally ran out so I wondered could anyone recommend a good alternative? It's for this wee beastie Thanks in advance!

Thank you he's no where near finished though! I didn't think so no! Just need patients. I used a hair dryer and some fishing line. Heated the end for a good 15 mins (takes longer with a hair dryer, if you have a heat gun, use it!) just until you can feel it loosening, then with a sawing motion move the fishing line behind it. But constantly put heat on the parts you're sawing and do not pull and try and rip the bump strip off! Then when you have them off cover in tar remover and start to pick off the sticky stuff! Then give the whole car a good clean, polish, seal and wax and you'll be 100%
