  172 Cup & Mini C 1.6
Hi all
As @ AlexW is doing my LED conversion. I thought i would get my cleaning toys on @ Ventura PH1 as its been sitting around for a while feeling a bit sorry for itself. So i drove it back to mine after dropping my cup of at alex's. I must say i throughly enjoyed the drive back to mine it really is an epic car. I had to do it over 2 days due to lack of daylight

So day 1 was mainly decontaminating it
So heres the story

Day 1

The car is pretty dirty after sitting around

So i cracked on with the machine polishing and straight away you could notice the difference as the paint was looking very flat. At this point i havent even glazed it

Im pretty pleased in how shes come out. Im sure rob will be very happy with it when he sees it. It really is an epic car and now its a very clean glossy car

And as for the bonnet i just sealed it with Gtechniq C2 V3 as i dident fancy attacking it with the machine polisher

Well thanks for looking

Ill be taking them off tomorrow and will be getting thr crap out with tar remover. They are riveted in but i lost daylight so it will be done tomorrow with some more touchups

How come they were still mucky tho? Surely you went over them with your wash mitt, then dried them.

When i wash my car and then dry it, its all clean between the badges etc.

Awesome car, awesome job and awesome write up.

I really enjoyed reading that.

Why did you seal the wheels before decontaminating though?
Cheers bud :)

I dunno haha i kinda got on with the wheels without realising. I throughly cleaned them 1st then done the decontamination then sealed the wheels so i cocked up with that typo lol
