[/QUOTE] just remember its still got to go through the 110v transformer [/QUOTE] Yep, one is on its way thanks. Still got 110v plugs and cables from when I worked in the construction game but never kept a transformer sadly. Got a mate sorting me out with one though. |

Prep is the key.
if you put hours and hours into your prep, even with no wax it would look better than a really rough car with the most expensive stuff splattered on top everytime. get the prep right and your laughing, with the proter cable, the prep is a doddle, and with a darker car like your 318is then your shine should be deep enough to jump into lots of experience, zaino and a porter cable can get you this i should add that this was not done by me but by c76jon, and its shepsevo3 car Edited by billgates e30 |

Now all you go to do is spend more money on polishes, waxes, cloths etc I did and she is cracking up with the amount of products I have in the spare room (she doesn't complain when I spend it on her car)

You need This and this When your pc comes you will need to cut of the usa 2 pin plug, you then need to put on the new plug,american black is live, and white is neutral, there is no earth as the cable is double insulated, this is a very easy 2 minute job |

Mine came with a standard US plug. I had to cut it off and replace it with one of the large yellow type. If you search on Detailing World there's a very useful thread telling you precisely what to buy, how much, and where from. pm me if you want me to search for the link and post it! Autopia apparently deliver in 3-4 days from the US and most people praise their service... Please see my site (sponsoring this forum) for pads and backing plates Regards - Nick. |

Thanks guys Yeah I know I'll need a transformer. What plug did your pc come with? It wouldn't have been a british three pin plug obviously, but was it a round three pin plug, you the type that fits into the transformer? Or was it somethng completely different that you then had to lop off and change to a three pin plug that plugs into the transformers. I have seen the Autopia web site, thanks Pete. Andrew |
