Transport wax. A good glue and tar remover does the job on it as well Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

What i would say is this bud. All of the factors in your life were there when you were with your ex and you were happy enough then. She seems to be the pivot point so speaking to someone to help process it WILL help i promise you. Also as said above you are young. Theres so much to do in life and you can do plenty of it alone. For me (if you have the money) the best thing you could do now is go travelling for 6 mths to a year. Youll constantly be meeting new people. Itll build your network of friends far and wide. Make you realise you can be happy alone. Youll see exactly what the world has to offer and youll be leaving all this baggage behind for a while. I wouldnt write off moving to another part of the country as well if where you are holds nothing for you. Live a life less ordinary for a bit Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Think the zed has an alternator suppressor which can causs that symptom with the radio if it fails. I still say its a coil pack breaking down when its being put under load. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

For future you might want to consider using a high build primer as well. Gives you a nice surface to work with on textured parts Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Half a bodge but itll work is to lacquer it then resand lightly and start gain. The lacquer will fill the scratches and give you a flatter surface to work with. To be honest if youre not using a good 2k lacquer out of a gun youll never get a bodyshop finish. Basecoat wont fill as said above but for example when you scotch up a panel to get a key youre putting scratches in it. The lacquer then fills them so depending on the depth of the scratch and the quality of your lacquer wetcoat they will dissapear. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Personally i feel weve seen far too many of these 'bulletproof' engines slatting a rod through the block etc to ignore the fact that the right fuel needs to ne used. Very very difficult to pin it down to fuel but you take some time to read up on pre igition and knocking (which are 2 totally different but intrinsically linked things) and youll understand why its a serious consideration Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Autobrite Direct FAB and CSP APC excellent fabric cleaners. Hot water Scrubbing brush Lots of microfibres Ideally a wet extraction vac Plastics resto if pigment has gone will only ever be temporary Decent APC or fairy liquid if nothing else Hot water Scrub brush Magic sponge (decent quality) Lots of microfibres A steam cleaner if possible Trim ultra technically does restore some colour and dries like a varnish but its trade only ans recommended for exterior only CSP prestige interior dressing is good Try to avoid silicone based products.

Its a leather pigment mate. You can buy it from Buffalo Leather, Furniture Clinic etc. Needs a leather sealant going on after though. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

However.....did you know Mike Phillips recommends handwashing with the snowfoam ON when the vehicle is in gor a correction as a time saver and the fact that the foam surfactants will help to debond the dirt and lubricate the washing process. Stunned me at first but in theory on a lightly soiled car it does make some sense. The amount of marring you would introduce is minimal by comparison to the defects youll already be removing.

these are the guys and the kit you need, look for tan (in the drop down list) it's done a excellent job on my seats. http://www.buffalole...-repair-kit.htm cheers mate.i have just taken a look at the link and am i right you get 4 different shades of tan colour in the kit ? which one did you use for your seats Theyre the guys i use. As i said before though the method of application and prep is the key thing. Also less is definitely more. Dont assume more repair pigment gives a stronger finish. You need just enough to get the result you want. Thats why an airbrush always gives a better finish and repair. The repair itself prob took me an hour but mixing the pigment took me 1.5 hours (i do it myself as i dont have time to wait for jackie to send me the premix out) Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

APC agitate Wet vac Add infinitum You could also try pouring sawdust or those oil absorbant beads on the mat overnight to soak up the worst of it. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Its a tough old job Wilo. To get a quality lasting repair you cant just whack it on from a kit. For a kick off youll be using a sponge or cloth which can give a dreadful finish. It needs to be airbrushed on really. Also you need to he keying the surface, applying leather bonders and a leather lacquer to seal it in. If you really want to give it a go then speak to Buffalo Leather. I think they keep the colour on the system This is a zed i did. Not a fantastic turnaround but acceptable for what the customer wanted Can be effective if you get it right though. 360 Modena coming up nicely Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

PIR ive never heard that term before? Google reveals loads of posts but no explanations. It is as simple as 'the amount of product that will hit the panel'? Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
