Have to say a BIG thank you to Nigel, it's actually much better in the flesh than in the pictures. Although it didn't look at first glance like it needed much doing, it was much worse than it appeared, but now she's all sparkly and sexy again If anybody has shabby/dull/crap paintwork this is the service to employ - well worth the money and when i have some more the yellow one i own will be having Nigel's tender touch too Cheers Nigel, very much appreciated

Cheers Nigel, very much appreciated Thankyou It was a pleasure to do this car - it was my first Electric Blue and one that I've always wanted to do - the colour seems to respond extremely well to a good polish - the metallic effect is really noticeable now and the whole car seems to be a shade 'richer' I'd love to do a Vinci LE - I know from experience that this colour looks truly stunning when shiny.

not used ironX before - is that as the lube for the clay or to apply it before the clay? spray ironX on car inlcuding wheels wait then wipe/rinse off, same with tardis also THEN clay also.. Nigel did you just snowfoam or did you wash after aswell?

I really wanted to do this car - but I realised that spending 4 days in a blowy tent on the welsh coast was better... obviously From the pictures, this was as much of a challenge as any of the cars either myself or Dad have ever done... Here's another example; a picture of an Alfa brera I did for a nice woman from the Alfa forum: That was after a very similar treatment - winter proof!

Let's keep the promotions on your Dad's behalf to the Motormech section please Matt.
Coupe chat is not the place.

We must all do our part for the planet. I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.

Coupe chat is not the place. Neither is the Motormech section - Proccy's paint correction was nothing to do with Motormech, other than the fact that I used one of Paul's three workshops

Coupe chat is not the place. Please keep Neil Willies Insurance posts to that traders section rather than the insurance section then? Joe or JBT aren't advertising in general maintaince or tuning. Ross

Ultimately it is for the moderators and admin to decide which posts should appear where.
The Neil Willies post is of direct relevance to participants in the Spa trip thus it remains where it is.

Coupe chat is not the place. Coupe chat is NOT the place to advertise any business. Why is Nigel allowed to promote his business in coupe chat? Double standards

Too many 'rules' on this forum Maybe it should be in the 'Styling' section!? Who cares. What polisher & polish are you using, Nigel?

Maybe it should be in the 'Styling' section!? It should be in the Traders section. He's not a paid up Trader. Plus, as Pete nicely pointed out, this is the decision of the Admin and Moderators, who act in the best interests of the club, which members are part of. So there! Ross
