m_john_m 4 Posted January 25, 2015 Finally got Pamela the pug on the road!...... After 2 years! Today I planned on giving her a full machine polish...... Didn't have the time so just gave her a clean, polish and wax! I will hopefully do a full detail next weekend! Before Custard snow foam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m_john_m 4 Posted January 25, 2015 And here is the finished result, shame the sun wasn't out to see it shine. Will be giving her a full going over next week. Still needs some TLC, mainly the fuel cap needs respraying and so does the front grill as it has gone white. What engine mods do people do from standard? I could do with a bit more speed sometime soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

m_john_m 4 Posted January 25, 2015 Thanks, it looks better on pics than in person, bonnet has dents and needs a full respray. Rust starred coming through in places, mainly above rear windows! Still a solid car Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks mate, I love it, i just think it's hilarious to drive Yeah that's the one mate, I only bought it because it looks like custard......mi love custard. It's really thick and does a good job. I usually buy snow foam off my mate who owns a company called formulaclean, search him on Facebook, he sells all his own cleaning stuff and it's really good stuff, and it's a decent price autobrite sell good stuff but they have gone very expensive, 1L of custard snow foam cost me like £20 incl delivery, a lot of money to make fake custard haha I'd recommend finding a snow foam you like then buy a gallon of it, will last forever and save you loads of money. Your not meant to let it dry, you leave it for about 10 mins then blast it off with jet wash. I usually snow foam it first, then get set up for cleaning my cars, like fill up buckets etc and just let the snow foam do it's work. The longer you leave it the better.
