what if you move it away from the wall and find rust or other horrible things

It was a bit hard with a seized engine, sitting on gravel. the car had to be towed out of the yard with a van

Only thing wrong is the bubble on the front passager door is bigger and a small bubble on the stone chip on the bonnet. I'll sort the bonnet for pod, but the door might still be there. just take photos from the other side the bubble is still paint covered, so no nasty brown showing. I'll ask the body shop how much work it is, I do have a spare magic grey door, but it has a few scratchs. But getting the engine broke in and the speedo working are my main priorities at the mo.

Oh and getting insurance cheap enough! thats my job next week.

I've cheated outragously for 8 mths... sainsbury's car wash

OMG no wayyyyyyyyyy. I'd never use one of those car washes. I'm a lazy sod when it comes to washing my car, but i'd rather do it myself than use one of them. Shame on you squigglet

[Cavyman_130]

those car washes should be burned to the ground, they do horrible damage to your cars paintwork

I now realise...
Had a look today (in a brief moment of sun) and lots of little scratches... Going to have to do something about that me thinks.

[Squig]

can anyone suggest a better solution to the scratches than clean - t-cut - polish - wax?

Respray

[Gaz]

thats my logic too

[Cavyman_130]

go on cleanandshiny.co.uk or .com cant mind which one, and look for meguiars swirl remover 2.0, its under the polish section, that will remove most of your scratches, its good stuff. personally I would never use T-cut as it puts more scratches on your paint than you take out

If I could afford a full respray before june 8th she'd be booked in already

Meguiars microfibre cloth

Adam

When u've nackered the microfibre cloth don't go and buy more meguiars micro fibre clothes....
Pop to a decent store like 'wilkinsons' and buy some there, just the same but less expensive.


Adam
