DodgyRog Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) I know there will be loads of these sorts of threads over the weekend, but I am going to post it anyway:p Spent all morning hand t-cutting and polishing the winter grim of my carbon bonnet. Should of taken a before pic, but didn't think to do any until I was half way through the t-cut, the far side in the first 2 pics is how it was before any work. and after the hand polish with about quarter of a bottle of Meguire's NXT Generation Tech Wax, I couldn't believe how much it soaked up. Was intending to do the whole car, but my arms acheing and a beer in the garden is calling:D Edited March 21, 2009 by DodgyRog (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-_-b Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Nice, i know how much effort it takes into getting carbon bonnets back up to looking nice. Wish mine could have been done with just t-cut! keep on top of it with the wax and it should hold its looks a lot better now. Nice work!

Will do, give me a minute, I will have to have a quick look at a couple of old threads Fantasic effort, looks like glass now Thanks, unfortunately won't stay that way for more than a couple of weeks, but no t-cut, just polish for the rest of the summer. I didn't get those seats of ebay, I pm'ed you about, they went for £315 and I agreed with the misses not to go over £300:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
