A big mate of mine owns a Valeting and car wash centre and he came up today with some engine degreaser.

He foned and said "this stuff is the daddy, wait will you see it work" and he wasnÂ’t joking.

What degreaser was it? and can the general public buy it!?

Cheers :)

aye mate al try and get the name are you local as they are a scottish company

Sadly I’ve hit a bit of a brick wall today with the painter. His booth has packed in this morning and I think it’s been the straw that broke the camel’s back so he’s decided it’s time to call it a day. Which leaves the project in a bit of a disaster, he’s agreed to finish the prep so that the car is ready for paint as this doesn’t require a booth but can’t take it any further.

I think I can safely say I won’t be making Ultimate Dubs, need to try and find a good painter to finish the car to the standard that has been maintained throughout the build. Early conversations with a few places locally aint looking good for the timescales so I think I'll be pulling out of UD's.

Anyone wanna buy a half done mk1 golf????? :(
