Full Detail & bumper dye
« on: 13 May 2016, 14:01 »
Had been using the MK2 as a daily for a few weeks so it was starting to look a bit faded again.

This is after a Pre wash, foam lance, hand wash, de tar...... etc etc etc

Faded bumpers looking better using Forever black

Great work - you gotta love a mk2 big bumper!

I had an Alpine white one, which I wish I had kept!

That looks fantastic.  Great job!   :cool:  :cool: :cool:

Really good to see something other than mk6s and 7s in here lately.  Keeping the other marks coming!

Looks lovely. How long should your bumper dye last?

Good work. It does make a nice change to see 'proper' detailing. Not just products being applied to factory fresh cars.

Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.
