What detailing have you done today?

[I wanted a GTi]

No detailing or even driving today because I was looking at the BTCC but I just wanted to ask if it is okay to mix/dilute Bilberry wheel cleaner and leave it in the sprayer? If I was to do it it could be a few weeks from the time I mix it to using it all.

I hope so as I do that all the time - not noticed any issues.

Cool, that will make it much easier

Absolutely fine and can't imagine why you wouldn't do that. If you use it regularly there's little point in only making up a bit for every use.  Makes sense to make up a whole spray bottle at a time, diluted to a ratio suitable for maintenance use, it's what I've always done, it's designed to be diluted.  Just give the bottle a shake before spraying it on.

Not sure why but I thought it might get fecked up by leaving it. Happy days

Btw Booth11, still waiting for the exterior detail photos

You'll have to wait, because I went to the out to the cinema instead.  Car can stay grubby for another week. Wasn't going to post any pics anyway, as peoole get sick of seeing same pics.

Needed to switch the wheels around today as there was 1mm less tread on the fronts. So to make it worthwhile, wheels washed, de-tarred, IronX applied, barrels clayed, a possibly pointless polish given how much effort I put in and a coat of Gtechniq C2v3 to seal them. I think they came up pretty good. I was a bit surprised as to how little pink staining there was from the IronX on the front faces but anyway, done now. Will need to do the rest of the car once I've recovered

Too pooped yesterday for photos but this morning the sun was showing the TR off at it's best and fortunately the car wasn't pooped (on)! No real close ups as it might be too obvious that I hadn't cleaned the calipers

And some general shots, sorry if they are samey, very limited space outside my house..

Lovely Watts.  The red is looking super vibrant in the sub.  Nice wheel work too. 👍

Looks good Watts. You're making me feel guilty as I planning on cleaning mine today, but it's too sunny (shouldn't complain about the sunshine though) and there aren't any shady spots to move the car to!

Thanks It became one of those jobs that I wished I'd never started, took far too long.

It is tricky on a sunny day, I was lucky yesterday as it was overcast. Perhaps better then that you rest up and enjoy the rays
