this is freaky was only thinking last thursday when I was buying a quick clay kit and some polish that if it would ever turn up.... Yet to see mine but everything takes a bit longer down here in old Adelaide :thumbsup:

Ok so I didnt really look at what these "samples" were when i got them earlier, thought i'd just sus them when i gave the stag a quick was thisarvo...

Anyway I got some glass polish and super resin polish and 2 sachets of fancy car wash.

My exterior detailing kit now has:

Numerous car wash soaps

Clay bar

Quick detailer

Wax

Polish

Cut and polish

Metal Polish

Glass polish

super resin polish

Tyre shine

bumper detailer

(plus more i would have forgotten)

Seriously when will it end? how long do you guys spend washing the wagons? I seem to find myself giving it one good wash (takes half a day) and polish a month with a weekly or bi-weekly wash in between these "mega washes"

Thinking meguires has got me good on some good marketing techniques....

Ah im out washing mine proberly once or twice a week normally. With a full Exterior detail once every two weeks. ( Lots of spare time :) ) However lately haven't got to give it a good wash or detail, due to excessive work and rain and other commitments. But just finished a good detial then and i trialled the auto glym glass polish. Very happy with the results. However it made more work for myself as it showed up all the marks on the inside lol! :D

i find with the glass polish, the longer you leave it on the eaiser it is too take off,

i wash mine every week, may leave it 2 weeks before i wash it but that rarely happens,

the wife hates my detailing addiction, i must have $1500 - $2000 worth of stuff, its forever growing too lol,

the big detail (4 times a year) takes me all day (8-9 hours) to do the stag if i polish, wax it, i must be sad, i find detailing one of the most relaxing things to do.

I wash mine everytime it's hard to see where i'm going... :action-smiley-069: no,really i'm not fan of washing it because the second day after washed is all dirty again and because it shows all the details :happy: (about 5 dent and various scratches)

Beeing a daily drive is hard on her...

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
