Camo? Hmm..

[Foos]

camo'd it.



Well actually it's just sealant I wa leaving to settle before polishing off. Tho it did make me wonder how good an "urban Camo" I.e black an white camouflage vinyl wrap would look on a GTI .

I hope you didn't do that today in the open in the heat of the day

Yeah i did, but its a sealant, its supposed to dry before buffing off

No drama's in getting it off, just as painful as always

It was freaking hot in Melb tho :\

The ideal way to wash and detail a car is out of direct light

[Foos]

ideal, - yes probably - tho never seen a good reason why this is so (other than the "the wax won't work well", or "will dry too fast to get it off easily")

Suffice to say, i've done it hot, cold, sunny, cloudy - always comes out the same

Poorboys EX-P btw (which specifically is OK in the sun

[SilvrFoxX]

if there is no choice it should at the very least be done a panel at a time, especially on black as it will bake the product onto the paint work.

[Foos]

i think I'm ok with it

[SilvrFoxX]

Looks the ducks nuts

[Foos]

for about an hour if i'm lucky

Which is why I didn't get Black.. I am a detail junkie and love what black looks like after a full 2 days detailing but couldnt handle the immidiate dirt and eventual swirls.. so I went for RB which allows you both worlds

[Foos]

yeah, i wouldn't have bought black if I had the choice.

However my old car was written off (hail) - and I needed it asap. Probably would have bought the Carbon colour. But it should be an interesting experiment. I'm sure you probably should own a black car in your life at some point

Now if we had proper choice. Then it would have been interesting

I see you in #29

[Foos]

what - not 34 ? Poo brown? Mazda just launched their new Poo brown with the current Mazda3.. disturbing.

I've always like #12 (maybe not for a GTI, would be good for the normal Golf's).
