Great job guys, very informative and I really like your step by step format and links to buy recommended products. I think black and gunmetal wheels are a passing trend….go silver with lacquer to seal against the winter salt. Keep up the great work!

Nice instructive demo guys, I have this to do on my Merc 190 and have been putting it off for fear of making the paint worse. I think the wheels aren’t too bad and not hideous black. However, silver would work for sure!

Well I love your ultra rare B6 particularly the GMBH body kit that you never see any more. The colour is Denim Blue I think as I have a 02 plate avant that also needs paint correction after 2o odd years of being washed with a gritty sponge. Keep up the videos I love that you are doing this is a busy scheme with the neighbours in the background.

For the wheels you could use fallout remove and try scrubbing it with a magic eraser, should come up great, make sure to keep the area lubricated to reduce swirling. Might need to give it a light hand polish after, the rim might appear a bit dull if you don't

Unfortunately it’s not quite big enough around the sides but I agree, if you have a big enough space do it inside.

Love the videos and there’s a but, is the volume level, when your doing a demo with music the volume is good then you go to speaking and can barely here you, so I’m forever up and down with the volume. Maybe invest in mics. Just a positive criticism

@HomeBuilt

Hi Ricky, Thanks for watching and posting some feedback. I totally agree with your comment, a lot of the problem we have is high winds where we live so its difficult to adjust the sound levels to compensate for wind noise. We are looking at mics but its tough to pick the correct ones to suit our needs, they also cost a load of cash for decent ones😂 but we will have something in the near future hopefully. Thanks again.

You will always cause marring as you are using an abrasive this is why machine polishing is a must. Did you continue to fold the dirty clay over on itself it sounds like you have picked up some large debris in the clay.
