Cars 'n' Coffee @ Shop 'n' Shine Derby 26th March 2016

[MidlifeZ]

Shop 'n' Shine at Derby is holding a Cars 'n' Coffee morning on the 26th March 2016, ATD Detailing next door will also be open offering demonstrations and tips. Hot drinks will be available as will a sweet stall for the little and not so little ones.

So come along and meet like minded people, there will be special offers on the morning and Dom (the owner) has promised to make it a special and exciting event, as usual it's the customers that make this sort of thing a success so use it or lose it please folks, get involved don't just turn up with a mate and ignore everyone, say HELLO!! We are holding this event just for the morning, so we have a good number of people at the same time instead of people missing out on A.What's happening and B.Meeting other people, so don't tip up at 5 o'clock wondering why nothings happening.

Shop 'n' Shine is on 5 Clarke St, Derby DE1 2BU, you will see a set of units and will have to drive behind them to see us.

Kind Regards

MidlifeZ aka Simon

Hi Steve, yeah they are quite a young team trying their best so all support is welcomed, they are friends with ATD next door, as ATD used to work for Dom i believe, I have been trying to get a Cars 'n' Coffee going for over a year now and Dom is the only one that has welcomed the idea so i am hoping for good weather and good people on the day mate.

FK1000P is a wax Steve, I use Topaz from Autosmart then top with FK, but you could use whatever polish then top with FK!! The polish is not important as with all applications it's about the preparation, FK seals in your hard work and provides protection for a few months depending on your washing regime! If your soap is too harsh you could be washing it off the next week!! Have a look on DW for more details mate.

Bilt Hamber is a good product at a fair price but wait for the Event and see what offers are on

Oh and don't blame me if your pockets start emptying at an alarming rate.

Might join you there Simon if the weather looks OK.

 

[MidlifeZ]

And if it doesn't you could take the Toyota and still pick up a bargain.

 

[Z Victor 1]

Good point and it could do with a little polishing!

 

[Jack Ratt]

Is Poor Boys Black Hole polish any good ?

Is Poor Boys Black Hole polish any good ?

Personally I haven't used it mate sorry, I use Prima amigo to enhance dark colours before adding wax.

 

[Tracy Dee]

Jack if you ever use Poor boys black hole or Prima Amigo they both contain fillers so will need sealing after either wax or sealant otherwise time wasted applying the 2 above.
Used both products not much in it although probably lean towards PBs.
Cheers
Cliff.
