also like a muppet i washed and polished the car in the snow but used the das6 to put the tech wax on
it held off long enuff to let me wipe it all off

I made that mistake the other month, and it made a right mess of the car. I couldn't buff the stuff off as it turned back into a paste.

only ever had that with autoglym products and since this car has never seen any you can tell how long its been since ive used it 🙂
it dry out enuff for me to wipe it off its been 6 months since this car has had wax on it lol found 2 nice scratches that will need cutting out when iits warmer

Tech wax and cold / damp weather don't mix at all. It also amazes me whete random deep scratchers come from!

well stopped at the local car parts and got some Forte specialist injector cleaner and filled the car up with super £65 :dead:
going for a bit of a trek on the motorway tomorrow so thought was a good idea to give it a blast thru
cars 20mm lower with a full tank

also went and picked up my new washer bottle and front wheel arch liners there's a new auxiliary belt in the pic to

evocarlos

ahhhhhh

new dash trim!
do i stay with white or go back to grey ?

for me, i would say white is a bit in your face. piano black maybe? thats for my taste. but its your car. my corsa d has silver trim in centre of dash and i hate it! want to go to piano black but dont see any in the breakers.

MikeS

problem is with piano black is its shiny and reflects off the screen
the white is bright but its matt so not so bad and its is a good contrast over the black dash
