returned to former glory

Ever since Mrs G took our Fl2 to a caravan site, its been, well a bit soiled and grubby really Evil or Very Mad So today I got chance to de-vansite it Very Happy Washed it then gave it a once over with poorboys black hole glaze.( he's not going to be poor long at his prices Laughing )
Then a top coat using some old polish I found in the garage.... It was in a mineral water bottle because a dog ate the original bottle and I forgot the brand Embarassed .but its good stuff
Viva la difference Shocked You can see why the stuff is called 'black hole' if you stand close to the car you really feel like you could fall in Cool such a deep gloss finish.



Oh and warning to all, do not, repeat not , eat at wetherspoons in Thirsk N.Yorkshire, its absolutely Censored Censored
Although I enjoyed the Marstons Pedigree (my first pint in a pub for six weeks Evil or Very Mad ) At work

though Poorboys black hole glaze has swirl fillers in it, by polishing it with your unknow polish they would have removed these, or replaced them with the unknown polish if it also has filler in it.

Next time Black Hole, then use a sealant or wax to put a layer on to keep the polishes fillers in place a little longer Thumbs Up

but you'll have forgotten this great advice this time next year when you do it again Laughing Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

the trouble with Thirsk wetherspoons is that it the lower floor of a great big hotel so the rooms are grand and spacious. So I got tempted in, sadly the service and food was pathetic Evil or Very Mad At work
