Re: Help needed from Polo owners with climate control
Awesome, thanks for that, looks like you can see the clips through the clear ish plastic because of the flash, but there isn't a gap at the top?

Re: Help needed from Polo owners with climate control
I'd gladly take a pic but its night time here at the moment. If I remember in the morning I'll take a picture and post it here for you. Try comparing your image to this in the interim. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/volkswagen/polo-gti/first-drives/volkswagen-polo-gti-2019-long-term-review Ch...

Help needed from Polo owners with climate control
Need some help guys, had my car in the dealership to fix my snagging list (small nick in the handbrake leather, slight out of alignment bonnet) and then what I thought was a clearly mis-fitted climate control unit PXL_20200903_162131474.jpg You can see the centre clips in the middle vs at the edge T...

Re: Seat fabric protection - advice please
Gtechniq I1 is probably the best out there, works on all fabrics, mats etc
Get the 1l bottle if you're doing all seats, mats and carpets under the mats as you do have to almost soak the fabric to get the performance from it

Re: Polo Gti+ Pure White New Car Prep
Just finished off the car, rewashed and then got to work on the glass coating. Polished the glass twice with nanolex glass polish due to some quite heavy etching marks. Panel wiped off and then applied my go-to glass coating, Gtechniq G1. 3 coats on the windscreen, 1 on the sides and 2 on the rear. ...

Re: Detailing question
Just to echo what a few have said in here already, the only surefire way to remove any existing protection on the paint is via an abrasive product, either an abrasive prewax cleanser or finishing polish will be more than sufficient. There is benefit to then use a panel wipe after this to strip off a...

Re: Polo Gti+ Pure White New Car Prep
Wondering if you've all seen the famous (inafamous) post from a guy with a Vauxhall Astra some years ago? Similar to this, but much more involved and him using massive camera lenses to photograph the tiniest imperfections in the paint, with a view to going "back to the dealer with it" etc...

Re: Polo Gti+ Pure White New Car Prep
Wow, devotion to the cause there, but it looks great. 8) What did you use to remove the wheel weights without scratching the black paint? Its quite easy and applies to anything stuck on with an adhesive pad, such as badges, decals etc. You heat the item up gently with a heat gun or hairdryer, then ...

Re: Polo Gti+ Pure White New Car Prep
Great post Phil. Car looks amazing! Would you do the same cleaning process each time? Or do you have a more concise method for a 'quick wash'? Thanks!
