Yeah i'd absolutely not apply it to weather seals, interior plastics or anything like that.

Absolutely, but it doesn't hurt to give them a car free of iron, road grease and dirt as a starting point.

Hi all, I cleaned my car at the weekend, and gave it an isopropyl alcohol "buff off" after the wash (1:3 IPA/water dilution). I did this as the car is being wrapped and I wanted to clear the paint of any polish after removing fallout etc. Now, i've done full weekends of claying and polishing...

I can provide a better picture. I have no doubt the area is double skinned (infact you can feel the reinforcement on the panel). My issue with the service provider was the lack of care and attention paid to the car, and the additional damage made by scrubbing grit/dirt off the paint with a bare...

What do you mean?

Yep that's what I thought, i'm just struggling to find someone in the NW to do it! The last guy said he couldn't because a big section of the arch is "double walled" so he couldn't get the tool to the back of the dent.

Hi all, I'm trying to get a small dent corrected (see pic) The last guy I had out said it needed filling and painting and in the process used HIS HAND to scrub dirt off the paint and swirled the paint before leaving. What a cool guy. I'm at the end of my rope trying to get this car prepped...

Thanks, will give this a go, being gentle.

Hi guys, Im starting to get the my car up to scratch. The paint isn't toooo bad on the whole (though the roof is a mess of swirls as scratches for some reason) ... but I do have this going on: The lacquer is peeling around the seal. Any ideas how to correct this before I start with a good...

Thanks for the tips guys, i'll report back how I get on.

Hi all, While doing some stuff on the car, I had to use some superglue (the clear stuff you use assembling those airfix models). I forgot I had some wet glue on my hand and managed to get a thumb-sized patch on the bumper! You can't really see it unless you look, but it is going to do my head...
