Cut and Polishing / detailing car + MAS entrants query


Recommended Posts

Dale.

we are all thinking (for entrants) to get together on Thurs nite or something at a big car wash somewhere and we all go over all the cars that are competing...

Kinda like a BIG bonding session :D

And we can all go over each others cars/etc and get them looking nice.

Just hope it doesn't rain on friday :)

But Thurs we do interiors also for dust/cleaning and stuff aswell as the outsides !!!!

but then if it does rain... just a light wash fri arvo will fix it all.

Sounds good to me Ash :D Just DONT make it WEDNESDAY, keep it to thursday and all will be sweet.

Rob: you busy thursday?

Meguires you can pick up from Kmart :D

That Merguires wax is the shitz.. I did few bits of my car, and its amazing. Smells really funky too, like bannanas or something - i just wanted to lick it .. lol

The wax made a big difference to the overall finish and result.. when you take off with a whole bunch of rain on it.. it just slides off..

While not being cheap, I just had my car cleaned, detailed & polished at Protech in Bayswater for a HPI shoot... They did an awesome job and the car came up really well.

Cheers,

matt

I got a quote from VIP car care, Full detail is $157 which includes C&P, interior / exterior - the works basically. Quote is $145 without 'cutting'. The guy in my area is fully booked this week anyways [not surprised].

I may or may not get a full detail though...looking at cheaper options atm

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
