didnt realise they did evo's, may contact them. Problem is I want it doing by ecuflash as you can add more features to it. It has an ecutek licence but then the map has been tweaked using ecuflash to flash the cel which ecutek cant do on te evo's (even though it can on scoobs )

Agree - jay blackfire could be going on about a special sponge you can buy and not the dodgy morrisons specials that people normally use

I bought my mum a big bottle of megs gold class shampoo for her birthday

she uses the 2 bucket method now

still uses a sponge though (2 off)

Yes jay thats even better as it gives each coat chance to cure - the more layers the better

but remember once you put the paste wax on you cant put the other stuff ontop of that

so to be **** 3 coats of wet diamond then 3 coats of paste wax then start again in 6 months
