Welcome pal; same colour combo as me. Give me a shout if you need any advice regarding best polishes/sealants/LSPs/cleaning methods etc etc

[glenn snuggs]

Thanks for your very extensive reply. You must obviously clean cars professionally and your long list of detailed work in your post is far more extensive a work than I could do with my very limited car cleaning experience.
I think with a few good quality products and cleaning mitts etc as advised by you I could do a better job than currently.
I have not used machine polishers before and using these is not something that I believe I could have the skill to use anyway and would leave those to the professionals.
Thanks
Glenn

Not a professional at all Glenn, just have a good knowledge of when/what and how to use a product to achieve the desired look/end result. We all have to start somewhere.

....and I'm a PE Teacher!!
As Andy is saying, were are just Detailing enthusiasts with a great amount of knowledge and experience

[glenn snuggs]

Yes I suppose we all have to start somewhere, it was just from your detailed list of treatments it appeared to me that you
had been detailing for a long time and obviously knew your stuff.
The results though are impressive to see.

Whats the colour of your upper dash area Glen. The central console bit is piano black I think, but cant quite make out the upper dash (Above glove box) is it grey?

[robbo51]

Its Carbon fibre look Chris
Standard on the Sport models

[Chris_Blue]

Ah right- that's what Ive got too. Looks like it could have been dark grey- maybe even piano black throughout

[glenn snuggs]

Hi Chris - The dash is carbonfibre black effect as Robbo51 said.
This is standard on the DSport Plus models, and piano black around the lower console (heating controls area, radio and gear lever).
The photo that I took probably makes the dash finish look a different colour to the actual finish.
My previous Giulietta had an Aluminium effect dashboard.
Glenn.

Cleaned today, polished and stickered with DS3 Club chevrons finally!!

[lfcrule1972]

Wow super shiny ! I guess you're not entering the dirty DS3 competition for October then

[glenn snuggs]

Defiantly not!!

[Chris_Blue]

Its strange how the Sport Red seems to have different shades
This shade is the same as my last Sport red DS3, when my current one seems just a tidge darker red

Its very nice Glen (Snap LOL)

It's only been polished with morrisons car polish and not an expensive car polish.
Used Triplewax shampoo before polish. It's only 17 days old though so still bright finish.
