    I just took a set of the BKR7EVXs after 12K and put the same ones back in. I run full blown RICA and showed the outcoming plugs to Hamish and he said they looked fine. There are NGK Iridium upgrades of the EVX plugs, if you want'em.

    My advice is ring Hamish - he has both types on the shelf. Job done so to speak.

    I always wondered about the mop itself. A paint guru near me told me that the lambs wool pads you can get for drills get too hot. What is the pad made from and can I borrow it?

    BTW Hamish obviously must follow me about?? LOL

    Its not the pad thats the problem its using a drill , the speed is just to high and generates too much heat most pads for compounding and buffing are made from special foam it depends what you want the pad to do !Even g3 is quite coarse for compounding , metallics for example you,d be better off with g10 or similar with ref to u borrowing the mop how? i,m in south wales and u can forget about posting it it weighs a ton.How long is your extension ? :tongue:
