True m8, you cant beat the shine from a good black, my Civic Type-R (below) was nighthawk black!
As featured in BANZAI magazine 07 Bluewater Meet I organised!
Yes, very much so m8!
I should also point out that my CTR was tuned by CPL RACING in sheerness, who own the worlds fastest Turbo CTR at 650BHP and a santa pod run of 10.05
My CTR waslowered on Eibach springs, JDM Thicker ARB, Torque damper, Front and rear Tower strut bars, Lower tie-bar, Spoon 4-pot calipers, Jackson Racing Manifold, Full Spoon N1 exhaust system
it was wet sanded when i first got it and every 3 months it gets the works
jet wash
snow foam
washed with ph neutral shampoo using a wookie mitt
clayed
rotary machine polisher to remove swirls
da machined polisher to finish the prep
ipa wipedown
rims de-ironised then sealed
plastics coated and sealed
then 2 coats of nano sealent (my current prefered finish)
or 2 coats of wax (swissvax shield is my favourite)
all glass has g-techniq's g1/2/4 on them , great stuff , when travelling over 40mph theres no need for wipers
heres mine in action
[TUBE]0XQrWhUCI-Q[/TUBE]
after 3 months the bonnet ends up pretty much like this due to using detailing sprays to keep shiny inbetween so it gets the rotary treatment
but after a couple of hours with the rotary polisher it ends up like this
and as for kit
, dont get me started
heres my mobile kit
sorry , its a passion of mine and i get carried away sometimes
happy to help if anyone has any questions on products technique's ect as ive pretty much tried them all over the years
do you have a reflectometer then your a true nut, do you polish the lights aswell- silly question of course you do rofl
do you have any gold buckets ??
business is quiet this time of year so im happy to help if your passing guys
, i could have your notes looking like new
flash: yes headlights are rotary polished to shine like the paint work
i use 10,000,000 candle luminem torches for swirl spotting and a paint detective depth gauge to see how much paint i have to work with
g-techniq's do some great stuff , all expensive but with them you get what you pay for
poorboys touchless wheel wash is my favourite product of all time
it gets bloody expensive , my kit averages at any one time at about £3000 but i have to have everything to cover any situation and any car paint
wax's are the biggest expense for good quality ones , i have around 5/7 pots at any one time to suit different situations and colours but for example my swissvax shield costs £130 a pot
detailing is addictive , hard work but when you see the finished article its all worth it , the average detail i do takes 5/7 hrs without stopping , its hard to have breaks as most products are timed on the car so while one is working you put on another so you are going non stop , but i love it
Hi Fellow Note owners
Just starting a thread to document my Nissan Note ownership.
I have just sold a 2002 Audi S3 and was looking for a car for the short commute to work.
I was looking for something cheap to tax and insure and something reliable.
Started looking at the Note and liked...
my wee car , 2013 , 1.5 dci, its been great so far, fingers crossed it stays that way, im loving the gadgets in it, my last car was a bit basic so the note is luxury to me

Just had this doubled up spoiler fitted today. Bottom is the regular Note one, top ridged one is for a 2017 Toyota Camry saloon/sedan, bonded and filled and smoothed in, painted in gloss black.
