Nice work in progress pic there! Your Milano looks as clean as mine at the mo *lol*

 

[Alex.J]

Haha not very clean at all then!

It's all the salty motorway trips! I only travel 1 junction of the m1 and it's filthy ha!

Thanks mate, so much better now it's lower and setup!

 

[suggs_84]

haha exactly, not too clean at all! As said though, just can't help it this time of year

 

[Alex.J]

New great news!

The window cable snapped, drop my window into the door!

New regulator assembly needed!

Great!!!

 

[suggs_84]

Ahh know that feeling, same thing happened on my old Fiesta RS Turbo, had to keep the window wedged shut with a block of wood in the door until i got the genuine regulator from Ford which luckily was still available!!

 

[Alex.J]

Ok so in these images my window is held up with wedges and cable ties, however, its clean and FRSU complete and new lows:

Its getting there, could have done without losing my window in the door ha!

So cleaning took place;


A wash, clay, another wash, a polish, a wax and a sealant.


Mid polish. front door still has polish on it:

Polished, waxed a sealed:

Thanks

Looking good dude, what products did you use on it?

 

[Alex.J]

This time I used all autoglym products apart from the wash.

Meguirs gold class wash
Meguirs clay bar
Autoglym super resin polish
Autoglym hd wax
Autoglym top coat protection

As its not a correction just a top up I tried these

I usually use zymol, poor boys and dodo juice

All great

 

[bushell]

Never used the top coat protection before, maybe try that when i get a new car. Thanks

 

[suggs_84]

I've got the Meguiars clay bar and Autoglym super resin polish, good stuff ain't they, but never tried the HD Wax.......... large price tag puts me off lol!

Looking good though mate!

 

[Alex.J]
