Anyone? If this is lacquered will I ruin it giving it to a metal polisher place?
Im getting my intake tube done and thought I might kill two birds with one bill.
Thanks for the thougts guys.. they are 'oil' holograms for sure. They dissappear when I wipe my finger over them which you wouldn't get with a scratch.
Tbh im using a folded microfiber to apply because I got sick of the wax bunching up on my sponge and I found it hard to get inro the pot. I think this is where I went wrong. Hopefully I can get it all smoothed out by just going over it with a dry towel once its clean and dry
Hey people. Never had this before or at least not noticed it.
I have spotted some holograms on my bonnet when 'waxing off' in straight lines from windscreen to bumper up and down. i couldn't get rid of them. i consider myself thorough when waxing and use several different clean cloths to avoid this horrible hologram effect.
when i went fron side to side they seemed to drasticly reduce but not clear fully. Never had this problem on my last car but maybe im using too much wax (I do like to layer it on) or does this now mean the car needs taking back to clear coat and starting again?
hope to have another go tomorrow and i'll try get some pics up of the holograms if i cant get rid of them
the waxes i use are Dodo juice orange crush (On an Azure) hmmm maybe this is my problem? (Wanted to use it up)
Also use chem guys XXX hardcore paste wax
While were at it maybe you could suggest a wax for an Azure i know everyone has there faves
Had a go at painting mine but before i start the long hard job of removing paint from it with house hold products. Has anyone got one of these lying around?
Cal.. Link to some pics of your car mate? had a quick sift through the forum but it would be easier for you to point me in the right direction. the little version Looks freakin amazin'!
Aw.. you got me thinking now. Pretty sure they are 8s... if your robbing from work then get both..
actually thinking now, they are M10..
No.. not sure haha. If you are buying wait until we confirm this
I fitted 8mm Allen head or "Socket head" bolts to mine with some M8 washers.
or you could get M8 hex screws about 20 - 25mm should do it..
I also 'borrowed' mine from work haha
Just a thought. i bought a jack (low entry) and two axle stands from a company called "SGSEngineering" it was fairly cheep around £60 -70 i think and fair quality for 'hobby work'.... Much better to work on your car with axle stands i think. i had ramps for my pug and hated using them and you always have to have someone around to help.
Hope this helps
