      Cheers Andy, interesting reading!

      After getting caught by a speed camera in Aberdovey around 3 years ago I use the speed limiter all the time. Bring back the days 30 years ago with no speed cameras and when pedestrians knew roads were for cars not hoodies to wander across on a whim.

          My TomTom tells me where the variable speed limit cameras etc are Chris but I prefer to set the limiter accordingly to prevent me drifting over the limit

              I used to have an earlier version of that, mine used to pick up the automatic door sensors used by supermarkets !

                Hi Andy,

                Thanks for the details on the LSP.

                You did well to get all that machining done in that time, but that's not a combination I've used - and I'm getting old, lol.........with my rotary I do finish a set off on a low rpms but I think it's style and type of polishes / systems you have to choose from today.

                I also favour the Eurow plush towels, I have had 20 I think over the last couple of years, they also come up like new when washed, lovely towels. I know think they are too plush for taking off some waxes but I prefer them to harsher towels which I think can marr, which given 5, 10 hours machining, who wants to do that?!

                Nice results, I do like the bling yellow gives

                Regards,
                Clive.

                  The blue plush Eurow cloths are also fantastic for buffing up the Bellones. Also always wash and dry very well too (just don't use fabric conditioner or washing powder, liquid must only be used to avoid the granules from the washing powder becoming embedded into the cloths fibres which could inflict scratches on bodywork)

                    Yes mine go in my detailing washing machine Andy, non-bio liquid and don't share any washing machine with the family clothes, no way, cloths and kit is worth way more than to inflict things from family washing residue on them. Then into the tumble dryer to get fluffiness back everytime

                        I'd love to have a decent size garage to polish the car in when it's raining outside, if it had a washing machine and tumbler as well I'd be well happy

                              How about a bar, a snack machine and a collection of magazines!
