This weekend, swirl busting on a Red A4 v6 Cab and posting up the Mitsi L200 Bus that I did last week plus testing out further the CarPro PERL Plastic/ Rubber / Leather Trim product. Using on it on our everyday runner / dog wagon Pug 206 SW as a long term test Have taped off sections of the external plastic trim and window rubbers, to test sort of scientifically (well not really) and then applied different dilution ratios to test looks and durability and if femioved with washes/ foam etc. Have also applied to tyres and arch liners to test also.

Pics of all up on Sunday with Results :D

Was back at MRC to do an interior and engine bay detail for the Silver b5 RS4 avant I did previously and carried out a maintenance wash and top-up of to the exterior.

Another return customer was the Black B7 RS4 Avant I did for MLSRS4 previously, I carried out a maintenance wash and top up of the exterior and an interior valet to keep it looking at its best and on top of things. Some new tyre and trim dressing being tested and Mark will report back wioth some feedbak on durability etc.

Plus gave mine another good session to keep it looking at its best.

Pics of all to follow soon 8 :mrgreen:

Have a few more RS4's lined up for the 'Miles Better' treatment as well as an S8 8)

What with my Jap stuff still, theres not enough days to do them all.

Had the pleasure to view this very nice red avant and to quote it 'MilesBetter' 8)

The owner has just bought it and so wants to get it in good shape and back to its former glory. It has about 20k on it, ceramics and SS+ options, very nicely specc'd :mrgreen:

Owner previously had a 997 but needed something more practical :mrgreen:

Detail coming soon so watch this space for the write-up.


Some pics with mine :mrgreen:

This weekend will be doing a Black B7 RS4 and TechNick's other car, the family Cupra.

Then soon will be another B7 RS4, which is a new purchase for the owner and we have been stuggling with dates for a while (will be doing a quick clean-up to his Golf also). The RS4 was previously maintained by Polished Bliss for the previous owner, so I have BIG shoes to fill on this one 8)

Then the Misano B7 RS4 Avant and a Nice Silver S8 all coming soon 8)
