5 Hours Later...
 

So I got stuck in with the clay and kit that alanaslan sent me today. I have more work to do inside, under the bonnet, and underneath, but this is it so far....5 hours or more later lol! Shame I can't take it somewhere nice for decent pics! So want the stainless panels under the bonnet now...

That looks lovely Dawn.

Looks terrific! Bet you're glad you gave the clay a go :}. Great work :}.

The claying was much easier than I thought! The polishing was really hard work today though! My arms ache. I also smell like a strawberry as the wax was that scent hahaha! I don't have any tyre shine as the car shops here are all closed. Also nothing for my black trim and under the bonnet. :duh: So many jobs and can't get the stuff!

Not got any shoe polish lying about Dawn?:cool:

Autoglym is easy to Polish on and off but some think it is expensive (not me!).

I think that is a great colour car and looks all the better for being in the sun

Only brown for my walking boots! Not to worry she's back in bed now! I think the charger might arrive tomorrow to tinker with. And the Avensis is off to the garage to get the wipers fixed :mad: of all the times to stop working!!!

Claying can be quite therapeutic to my mind :}.

Polishing will be a lot easier if you can get a random orbital polisher. A lot easier to use than you might think, and very safe to use. Lots of instructional videos on YouTube.

Can all get quite addictive, but I suspect you've found that out already ;).

Great work.

Yes the claying was fun! I have been scared of it in the past but not any more! ��
