Nice work bud which snow foam lance and product are you using? :thumbsup:

I use the Karcher Adjustable Foam Lance and Ultimate Finish Ph neutral Snow Foam :)

Sorry to but in but this is using a karcher HD lance and carpro ph neutral foam.

Top stuff pete, on your lance has it got the yellow knob for adjusting your mixture? If so where's it set to I can never find where's best with mine! Edited by Adam R4

Yeah it does and yeah I always have the same problem haha. It ends up getting nudged out of position between uses and I have to try and find it again.

i usually run my lance on max, but just back off a little bit so like 90%, seems to flow better.

Need to try something similar just to get a reference point for each time I use it. At the minute I just turn it on and twist randomly until it gets the level I like :)

Readding through this topic, is making me very jealous. I also have a Canica Arosa (nowhere near as nice or clean as this) and have only really started to work on it properly, got a never ending list of things that needs done.

Just wanted to say really nice work.

And tonight i replaced my blown Polo speakers for Lupo GTi rear ones I've had for about a year haha, and I also packed the hatch and rear quarter panels with insulation to reduce the vibration from the Subwoofer as its got much more kick with the new head unit!

Tailgate before..

Sound! May I ask what you used? I've planned to insulate my whole car since last year but never really looked in to what to use.

Love it!

Haha it's actually what's used in camper vans, my dads building a camper at the minute and there's loads of the insulation left over, it's about 4 inch thick too! :)

Pushing it for some new tyres :P Just out of curiosity what does wheel sealant actually do?

There's like 5mm on these I've only had them a few weeks lol!

Wheel sealer protects your wheels and shines them up nicely :)

It's protection for the wheels against brake dust and other contaminants. Much in the same way that wax protects the paint :thumbsup:

Wow, amazing mate. Simple, clean and really effective!

Absolutely love this car :)

Thanks Vinny! One more (well two) parts to buy until I've reached my ideal Arosa, just waiting on the funds, but plenty more to come from me! :)
