lupogtiboy Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I didn't take mine in the end, got an engine issue at the moment, so didn't want to push her too hard, so a big thanks to my dad! I saw a red GTI on a private plate that arrived about 2pm-ish. All the lupo's & arosa's I saw looked stunning, my fave being this oneI really want my daily-driven GTI to look this good soon! Sooooooo CLEAN!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Some lovely pictures and lovely Lupo's there. That R32 look like it has been professionally prepared, would I be right in saying that? It looks stunning.Ashley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That R32 look like it has been professionally prepared, would I be right in saying that? It looks stunning.AshleyThanks! R32 was not done proffessionally, done by myself in an afternoon in the stable yard surrounded by horses lol. then driven from taunton to henley, sealed for overnight condensation with dodo juice red mist, then just a quick wipe down inside each of the wheels and arches before we set off to the show the following morning.Now realised i should have entered it in the concourse, but i never bothered to give the bay the same treatment, although it is very clean anyway, was steam-cleaned not long ago, there are some small grease build ups in some corners.However now seeing the standard of the other cars there, i will give it a proper shot next time!

Ashley Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Wow very impressive, especially doing it in one afternoon, did you use DA or rotary? Which L.S.P (wax / sealant) did you use? Sorry to ask lots of questions but i'm very impressed. You should definitely be entering that next year, it's in lovely condition.Ashley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEP51 Posted June 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 I used a rotary and many hours, (it was quite a long afternoon) started with stong mix of G101 to get everything off (arches included with wheels removed), rotary and megs compounds, then dodo juice lime prime, then super resin polish, followed by megs tech wax 2.0, occasionally use dodo juice purple haze wax, but i feel it only gives more gloss, and less colour comes through, so didnt use it on this occasion. Then obv the red mist to seal and dust off after the drive to henley.Car has been in the spray shop today getting a new rear bumper following a rear end shunt a few weeks back, damage was extremely minimal, and the old bumper will be up for sale soon, the small warp mark is easily covered by simply having a plate surround.Collecting it 2moro before going to get a set of pressed metal plates, uk font, blue gb banner, no plate surround on the front, but a wolfsburg surround on the rear - should look tidy!Still needs work on the roof to remove a few deeper cat-sctratches as well as a few on the rear right pillar from cat-scrambling lol.Also four miniature carpark dents are being removed from the driver side over the next few days. Also the chrome part on the front has two small cracks from hitting a curb at some pint in its life, with any luck someone else will drive into the car and that will get replaced by insurance too!Other than that, interior needs a pair of new door handles, bout £15 ea, so then it will be basically factory fresh!Will put up a few pics of the rear bumper and pressed plates when they are on.
