Went to my first meet today :relaxed: - nice people nice Audis :relaxed: anyone in the north east looking for advice and fellow Audi pals should join :relaxed:

I know - I'm really worried about all the stone chips on the bonnet and there are minor scratches (not my doing) and I need to get him seen to by a professional so I can then keep on top of the maintenance ...just waiting until I get a decent job and income ...has to happen soon ...

:flushed: Bit concerned about the rubber gloves, kneeling pad , detailing stool and the das pro 6 polisher?!! :tearsofjoy: I think my neighbours would be concerned if I had a Sunday on the drive with all that gear :tearsofjoy:lol!!

Hahaha!!! You have actually !! Wondering where I'm going to find a) the time b) the money c) the energy !!! The panic is setting in about whorls and scratches and I'm running out wiping bird poo off every 30 mins!!! How do people keep sane and keep a tiptop Audi haha!!!

Thanks ....I'm still finding my feet ...just be happy to know the basics right now! Shame there aren't any Audi info courses or a local Audi owners group lol - I'm boring the life out of my work colleagues haha!

Haha! Never thought of that ! Colleague told me peanut butter but the experience I had with that the other week was not pleasant :anguished:..had more on the upholstery, mats and in my hair than on the trim ! Gets everywhere :rage:. ...no I used that liquid shoe polish stuff...it was black ...ok...

I used that after the chamois ...have I committed an awful Audi faux pas :fearscream:??...I'm still learning ...bet you wouldn't approve of what I used on the plastic/rubber widow trims seeing as I can't get my hands on back to black :fearscream::grimacing:....improvise adapt and overcome ....or...

Only used it to dry him off - before waxing :anguished:...and it's good on the Windows :grimacing: have I done somethimg awful?! :fearscream:
