following on from gavs sad thread, i thought id start a show us your detailing/ valeting equipment thread. so heres mine. enjoy :)

pm on its way B)

funny you should say that as im thinking of selling my DA!! its a das6 pro with a carry bag, only used it a few times, i prefer the feel of a rotary myself so if i sell it il be getting a rotary. let me no if yer interested. il have pics up soon, just keep looking for the thread B)

not if i delete it :lol: dont worry being a mod hasnt gone to my head yet :P

hardware? im cutting down on stuff now. just uploading some pics now, il start a new thread off though for them. 17 pics !!!!! :lol:

might be something to do with the polish then, has oils in so may be that. that wax is ok but doesnt last very long. few weeks max. does give a nice shine though. might want to try megs #16 paste wax. lasts a good while

theres a 'rat' beetle going around liverpool with a porsche 911 engine in somwere!!! never seen it but ive seen pics. PROPER WEAPON lol

ive heard VW were also having problems getting parts to the factory also, giving a few weeks worth of delays , so prob same case for bmws

autoglym?? ive got that and its crap. i dont really use any of that tbh, although i have got some :lol: if its going hazy it may be reacting with what ever product on there. what polish / wax do you use?

bargie B)

ouch!! why a scooby engine there though? id understand if it was in a car lol

welcome along to the club. :D

lol, ive got a brand new bottle which i still havnt opened!! got other stuff to still try out first :lol:

nice pics gav. scooby ? perhaps porsche?

funny that this isnt getting boring yet :lol: BACK TO ME :D

why would you buy anything else :P

gav i needed to buy a 6x7ft shed last year to store all mine in!!! my air compressor is now in a mates shed as theres no room really lol ive also got a 6x4ft shed for the garden stuff but that has a 3x3 metre gazebo in i some time use!! il get some pics up soon :lol: sad er yes, but you spend how much on a car ?? so its worth looking after :D

welcome along B)

^^^^fail:d

o i will be B) i had a night out last week with my two best men as a pre stag doo. all i remember is throwing up out of a taxi window and the fresh air being very nice :lol: cant remember getting home though and my new jeans were full of blood and i had a cut on my hand!! gary my mate had bruises all over his back with some scratches!! we are known for doing stuff when drunk though DONT ASK!! butlins skeggy 09 :D we usually come home with souviners (SP?) lol

haha, i try my best gav B) wouldnt call me a ##### again though other wise chuck norris will come and !Removed! you up :lol: as for being a 'junior' we all started some were, my self started valeting in a car supermarket, with in 2 years i had gained many quilifications in smart repairs and full car body repair and paint. 7 years later and im basically my own boss working for a mobile bodyshop company, with my own van etc. although ive been a lazy sod the last year :lol:

lol, just remembered, me mum said to me before ive got a bottle of bubbly in to celabrate for when you get your license back!!!! i was like you are kidding aint yer, il get banned for drink driving :lol: e46 saloon for sale anyone <_<

correct again there gav. im on there with a fair few posts but it does get boring with the same constant posts every day. eg ive just polished my car for the first time and i think im ready to turn pro, any advice?? evan had some one posting asking if its possible to do mobile detailing using a scooter as transport!!! the pro write ups are really good though and evan some one like me who does bodywork for a living can learn alot from them. if you need any help just ask either me or gav as we tend to do a little bit here and there, although im better :lol: only messing gav :P

defo e46 for me, i like all the luxeries to lol had a go of one in the bodyshop i worked in a few years ago, !Removed! me they spin easily!! wasnt no ones car so i gave it some ;)

why thank you gavin. there is a guide on a forum i use but couldnt find it. google came up with that which tbh looks better advice B) my cars been sat on the drive since june, i just run it up the road every now and then and keep it cleaned. the tyres are the things to watch out for so they dont flat spot.
