I was very carefully instructed on washing the car.DustyM wrote:I hope you used the two bucket method!
Plenty of hosing down first, only a brand new sponge and if that so much as even touches the ground use another brand new one.
They're precious about their paint at Early911...
In fairness it hasn't been rubbed down yet, hopefully that can happen soon and I can then apply the 'Carrera' graphics.
Even before the final polish the paint already looks superb.

Wonderful both inside and out. Looking forward to seeing it. Loving the colour Paul and loving those seats very much.
Grandfather told me centuries ago that new sponges were the worst for scratching, "too many sharp edges lad, you need a nice clean used one with all the edges worn off, one that feels soft in your hand".

Mike
