anyone use this?

might get some to try on corrado, instead of using the menz polishes i have, i usually use them with machine then SRP by hand.

If i get the lime prime should i use it with my machine polisher then SRP then wax?

Been impressed with all the dodo products i've tried so far

I use it a fair bit yeh (kind of should do seeing as I'm an authorised detailer for them lol)

You can use it by hand or machine, it's far easier to work with by machine and gives better results.

It doesn't offer a great deal of correction ability, but the micro abrasives in it to sharpen up the paintwork nicely and the oils enhance the gloss / slightly mask swirls.

Ideally you wouldn't use SRP afterwards though as Lime Prime preps the surface ready for wax. If you want the filling ability of the SRP and the rest of the properties of the Lime Prime, look at just getting Need for Speed and just use that then wax.

Escort Si 1.8 16v Zetec, faster than any factory corsa produced until the VXR was released.

I also feel confident that the escort handles and drives better and people don't think your a girl, a teenager or poor (which is what happens with corsa)

i'm finding i just get the machine polisher out to get rid of water marks after washing now, given up worrying about the weird defects like hologramming and buffer trails.

a little miffed that when the detailer from cambridge autogleam came he didn't spot any of the defects

Interesting to hear that about C.A!!

Out of Lime Prime and NFS I much prefer Lime Prime, then I'd follow it up with a decent wax afterwards, no SRP.

If you are looking to hide some of the defects though, obviously SRP will be doing that at present so you may want to use Need for Speed instead.

he did make the car look nice and fixed the scratches which was the main reason he came out, but i was all up for a full machine polish, but he didn't seem too keen and told me the car didn't need it. Although when the sun is out i spot loads of bits i don't like.

i think he just clayed it, SRP, then wax, all by hand, which i can do just as well

glad i didn't pay very much

think i will try the lime prime and stick to waxing by hand.

its the cleansing properties of SRP that i seem to get most benefit from

maybe the R32 is a bit quicker, but not a massive amount in it

Corrado is lighter, lower, wider, less power, but better looking

honestly hatchbacks are there for a function and not a form.

once you understand the amazing styling and classic lines of the corrado you will see

i missed off the last few years when i made that statement, it was the fastest for many years.

still believe its the best looker and coolest, i mean ffs when/why did estates and shitty saloons start becoming cool.

this world is turning backwards, not mph but mpg these days, its not about stylish looks now, its about how many vents your bumper has or what colour your brake calipers are, or do you have a black sticker on your roof.

i think we all know the 90's was the best time for cars, before all these ipod type people got in charge of cars and things and turned them into fashion accessories.

oh btw, all those cars you mentioned have the VR6 engine to thank for their existance, including the Veyron.

Basically what i'm saying is i have the best car/engine EVER and won't take no for an answer.

mwg is cool though, with his new car, even if it does have a coloured roof in order to be fashionable

How does a W16 engine with 4 Turbos have a 2.9 VR6 from a 90s coupe to thank?

According to Wiki......the Passat had the VR6 first, so therefor the Passat is the best car in the world ever.
