NIKH25 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Looks decent, nice and clean under the bonnet. £10 doesn't sound too awful for a litre and £15 for 2.5litres is a bargain in my eyes. Did you check out the prices of the Megs stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 Yeah £15 is a decent price. Just takes the mick that they try n charge so much more per litre for the little bottle! They really didn't have that many meg products... Only a shampoo and polish that was priced around the same IIRC ..In fairness though I bought the autoglym as it's what in 'used' to. Will try other products out I the future. So first cosmetic issue are the black plastics. These include, side skirts, door trims, roof bars, B pillar covers and most annoyingly the trim that runs along the bottom of the windows. These will definitely need rubbing down and painting. Does anyone know whether they can be taken off? The rest, does anyone use any form of plastic restorer?? Dash shine maybe?? To try and spruse some life back into them??

NIKH25 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 This is what I use on my plastics, pretty good and lasts a while: http://www.autofinesse.co.uk/revive/ The trim at the bottom of the windows does come off but the clips that hold it on are very brittle apparently.

Will try that out next time I go in. Hmm ok mate thanks. Will have a better look, would prefer not to break them. But they do need to be done. Would just be easier off the car.

KiNK43 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Wow looks great mate. So tidy under the hood too.Don't laugh but I always use smooth peanut butter on the black plastics. Works great and lasts ages too. And @ £1.30 a tub will last longer than its use by date!Unless you get peckish while your cleaning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Apart from the occasional flock of seagulls knawing at your roof rails it's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
