Just read the thread from start to finish and wow....what work! Looks F.A.B. !

I rem seeing that beige Mk2 Golf in Gosforth some months back and i said to the GF at the time, "**** me look how low that is" and how you elegantly dodged the speed bumps...ha ha ! MINT ! She didnt understand, but i was like "fair play"

Havnt seen the Lupo in the flesh yet, but sure hope so soon !

no scrubin what so ever, no damping FTW!

the use of good quality paint materials is where its at. i can leave it unwashed for weeks, even months, and all i ever really need to do is wash it

no chamois

no expesive cleaning gear ever used on the loop

and definatly no swissvax
