Seriously mate, that R of yours looks the nutts, and certainly wouldnt be out of place. Blacky will be looking very dirty i reckon be the time she gets down there, i may take some water etc in a drum and give her wash before driving her to the meet. Sad.... yep lol

Do u think anything will stick to that shine?U left no grip for a dirt mate

**merc85** · Tuesday 23rd April 2013, 22:20

You'd be surpised how much dirt the clay bare takes off even on a clean polished car after you wash it down. trouble is on black the brighter the black and shine becomes the more stone chips and defects you notice lol, the bonnet and roof are very bad on blacky
