monkip1 Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 Ohhh Wicked[Y] Back to topic i think. Right What are the main particulars that judges look at on the cars that are entered inot show and shine? Help give me the sort of idea to the standard i need to aim for. Monki.
kevlorn Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 sorry folks, me and ed do tend to get carried away a bit pmsl... back to thread,, any tips would be a good idea, as this is my first show and shine, does everyone polish there car on the stand,or is it just ed, i know they'll need a dust off etc
kevlorn Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 what.. you polished it in the rain on the stand.. lol lol
monkip1 Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 Quote what.. you polished it in the rain on the stand.. lol lol Yes between showers, But a handy tip from the back of the zymole "Cleaner wax" bottle is "Spray light water on the surface of the paint work and buff to a shine to give that ultimate show room finish" (Or something like that), Well rain is as good as anything dont you think? [] Also you havent seen my antics on youtube, of me using a squeegy to "Dry" my car in the pooring rain? So no one has any tips on buffing up metal parts to a high chrome/metel polish? Monki.
monkip1 Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 Its not so much the polish, i need like a drill bit that buff up and do heavy duty polishing, saves my fingers and hands from dieing or repetative strain dissorder lol.
monkip1 Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 [Y] Cheers, i wasnt sure if i had to order them from a special place in the sky. I will pop to B&Q later. Im going to make thos components shine so bright you need [H]. []
monkip1 Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 Oh i will doo. I have made a few other cleaning improvements since i first posted my engine bay detailing pics in "Car care". But theres a few thingas i want to buy, like the Samco,carbon/polished slam panel, chrome or carbon alt covers ect, Braiding to go over the pipework for the oil cooler, Chrome batt cover or Prodrive replacement batt clamp. Its going to take time but hopefully it will look nice once its done. Monki,.
