Detailing Submissions

[Larry]

I got my eye on you Baz!!!
Right after recent talk of a detailing thread let's have some submissions for it, get enough together to get a nice section on the go. Everything counts, inside, outside and under. No 'get me home' 'fly by night' shit though, all proper guides with proper materials and methods. SUBMIT YOUR ARTICLES NOW!!!

I also notice that in some folks actual projects there is pages dedicated to the cleaning and detailing process, exerts from your projects could be re-used and submitted for the section...

Also JR's cabby soft top one gotta be in here.
Something about refurbing alloys too
detailing the exterior
the interior
dash
under the bonnet
so on and so on

refurbing wheels is quite hard going if you want a decent result, might try it myself soon on some old alloys, as far as durability goes, well, its a bit hit and miss too, which is why i got my wheels done at a specialists, but i shall have a go at some point anyhow
