GP Cars have kindly offered to run a tech night for us on car care, showcasing their Swissol range of products.

GP Cars also have a large range of other motoring/motorsport related products in their showroom that you can see on the night.

Please let me know if you are going to attend.

I highly recommend coming to this evening...
especially if you currently use a brand starting with M

[PT]

I am definately going.

As a suggestion, what about making it a show and shine event and having the GP Cars guys judge it?

[Abyss]

Mid week and on dusk probably isn't the best time for a show & shine, could cover up some faults however.

Most people would be coming straight from work.

There will be Pizza & softdrink provided on the night.

I was thinking of you, you don't have time to prep the car now, it's only 3 days away You'll be doing all nighters!

If there are a heap of people out there that want to do it speak up.

[PT]

Ok.... so who learnt something last night?

[JBT]

Me. But my paint is a bit old, swirley and sad in some places due to bird bomb damage to do the Swissol justice. I've got some other stuff I have to use up yet too.

[sabretooth]

Me, I'll still be using the random orbital with my Meguiars products. I can't justify Swissol at $125 for a small tub!

But, I did learn a few things on technique.

[PT]

Sabre, head over to www.waxit.com.au - They have Swissol too, but a lot of other brands that will do just as good a job (if not better) and at a much further reduced rate.

I use P21s... you can buy the kit which includes the car bath, the paint cleanser, the wax and the wheel cleaner for $99.00..... Excellent product and I believe it to be the best value for money on the market.

[rhysk]

That was good, thanks Abyss!
I learnt that sabretooth likes my camera

It also gave me motivation to swissol the rest of the NB this morning
The stuff is so easy to use: to wash, clean and wax by hand was 4 hours.
I'll grab some shots later.

In the meantime, a small selection of photos from last night.

[PT]

Got me motivated too...

My car has a layer of waxing soaking in atm... Should be shiny when I take it off on Saturday...

Anytime Rhys, I hope most people got something positive out of it.

Just wait till you wash it next time, it will just about dry itself.

It's a touch heavy with that vertical grip. Quite happy with my 350D, but I wouldn't mind getting my hands on that 10-22..

Yep, the white car (with swissol) dries itself. Just drive it around the block and it is done.
