Whats the best technique/product to re-generate/ freshen up & make the Trophy look red again instead of looking faded pink colour? Understand T Cut is not a good idea, machine polish? Mopping? or Turtlewax red colour restorer? Cheers

How easy are the recaros to clean ie the alcantara part? also the seat belts seem to get a bit dirty. Would like to replace them with red ones..

This weekend will be the first chance I've had to give the Trophy a quick detail since buying it, I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a wax for the red of the T? Also what are peoples opinions on colour charged waxes (Dodo juice) waste of time? Thanks

Heres the write up of the detailing session my good friend Olly (Snow Shine) carried out for me. After having him work on my EK9 before and seeing the results along with his various other clients I knew the car was in safe hands. I really can't recommend him enough and if you're on the South...

Does anyone know if any other Clios came with black seatbelts? Mine are really grubby and won't clean up, so I thought would be a good mod if an easy swap.

After all the recent snow, my Trophy was looking desperate for a thorough clean. I decided to give it a machine polish yesterday to get it back upto standard. No befores as it was just too cold....that cold that i half way through i tempted on leaving it. The thread will only allow four...

I'm thinking of starting to machine polish the trophy as i can see some general swirling which would be nice to get rid of. Has anyone been doing this on there T? Does anyone know is our paint clear coat or two part and does the paint seem to be quite soft? I should find this by experimenting...

I have been into detailing now for the last year, on my own car only. However after doing a few friends cars and several others through word of mouth I have decided to start doing it on my days off from work. This is the process which i take; Wash Clay bar the full car Wash again Dry all...

What's the best way for removing spot welded flies and moths from the bumper and bonnet? Is there a product someone can recommend that loosens them up so i can get them off without scrubbing and risking putting surface marks on the paint. I've never known how to get them off properly and just...

Hi Guys, I've used various products over the years but what do you find is best for cleaning your alloys? Like my old Cup, i find the wheels on the Trophy very fiddley to clean between the spokes but am reluctant to spray with some of the chemicals i've used on regular alloys in case it takes...

nothing you havent seen before but here she is..... car wasnt to bad, but a light clay caught abit of contaminaints... after a good polish with autoglym deep gloss she came up nice... and then time for some lifeshine paint seal... and there she is, nicely cleaned up and treated.... sorry...

Need to vent! A couple of days ago I drove to the gym and parked in the quiet car park (only 3-4 other cars in it) as I'm paranoid about door-dingers. I come back out to see a still almost empty car park apart from some genius who decided to park their beaten up sh!tty Honda Accord within...

ive owned no#51 for just over 2 years and loved it, best car ive ever had in fact. its was when i was at silverstone for the british grand prix and saw this clio 200 albi blue with cup chassis and the recaro seats i went wow. in the flesh it does look lovely pics dont do it justice. so looked on...

....................took the back seat out and discovered lots of muck under it and also my daughters missing DS game! Cleaned seats in the back and whilst doing this I have spent the evening scrubbing the seatbelts, well worth a job IMO!

.........decided to give the car its first engine clean today - not done it before but very pleased with the outcome! My faith in the car has been somewhat revived this weekend and can only get better once I get dampers done.

Hi guys, Just wanted to get an idea of which would be best for the T. Have had a good look on detailing world but would appreciate some of your advice. Dont want to spend a fortune on wax or sealant and a clay bar but would be interested to see what products people are using and what they...

Hey guys, I've been looking at cleaning products for the Recaro seats. I've got a good leather cleaner + Autoglym interior shampoo, but I'm looking for a specific cleaner for the Alcantara and also a brush. Can anyone recommend anything?

hi everyone, just after some help/advice really with regards to cleaning. after the t was purchased it was taken to a professional valeter as I could not clean the car because it had traindust(?) all over. When it came back the results were good. it has since had quite an extensive clean and...

ive been rather lazy these 3 or 4 weeks as i havent given the t a clean. i managed to give it a little wash (in the rain), so looks ok but i want it looking in a showroom condition, specially after all the snow,grit we've had. is there anyone who knows and uses one of these mobile car valeters...

Am wanting to spend a day on 007 in the next few weeks, a kind of 'spring clean' that i put all of my car through in Feb/March, especially now the roads seem a bit tidier after all the kacky weather. I valeted professionally for 6 years, but that was about 5 years ago now so i am a bit out of...

It was a lovely day today. So the car got a wash - but the new aqua dry is rubbish. I've always used Auto Glymm aqua dry but it seems to be made of a different material and they've put holes in it too. It's nowhere near as absorbent as it used to be requiring me to go over a panel 3 times and...
