Well Pete, your magic fingers worked well in making the S14 nice and shiny.

It is now on its way to Toowoomba, and I got what I wanted for it, not what it was advertised for, but for what I wanted. So now the cage can be planned for the other one.

You will have to let me know what your favourite tipple is. After the work you put in you deserve it, and the new owner drove off with a big grin, I think he was sold as soon as he saw it in the driveway.

Pete - well done mate.
looks like you worked hard and got very good results for the gang.

Promise I'll be at the next one to help and hopefully in my own 5 by then

Perfect result Matt! I'm very happy with that, no need for a payment. Who knows, I may need some assistance in the future that is your area of expertise!

Thanks to all who turned up for a looksee, there will be another in the future, now that the weather is warming up will probably make it sometime after Natmeet.

For those who have decided that you want to get yourself a buffer, I'm happy to come around and offer you some tips/lessons in using them once you've purchased. It's not hard once you're comfortable with the machine, but I had lessons to start out with coming off 20 years of hand detailing, so am happy to pass my knowledge on.

Thanks a heap Pete ! :roll:

Your work on the detail day convinced me without doubt i needed the polisher kit.
So it arrived on Tuesday.(ordered Monday)

Lisa took the MX5 to work so i was left home alone with the 6.
Well, 5 hrs later

And that was a quick 3 pass run over.
It is our work horse car and lives outside, so it really appreciated the attention.
Not bad for a well used 2008 car.
Bloody hell it is huge compared to the 5, so much surface area.
