What have you done with your Polo so far (and today)

Not really sure about the chemical composition. Initially I thought it would take longer being in cold weather, similar to Corey at 10deg. But lucky I only tried one panel to check how it was reacting with the paint, that's when I found out that it was drying too quickly for my liking. I did the rest of the car allowing 5-7 minutes per panel, this allowed the sealant to dry enough to buff off relatively easily. I think that this was about right.

Yeah - not sure about what effect the temp has either! I'd say that "I'll tell you in the summer", but as you know, Nanolex lasts 12 months so it means the next time I apply it on that car it'll still probably be cold! Mum has a Polo on the way later this year... maybe I'll be a nice son and apply it on her car?!

Used the Nanolex last summer on a hot mid 30oC day, car was garaged, but product was drying FAST, could only leave1-2 mins as too hard to buff off.Next time it will be definitely be a cooler day as a comparison

Same idea as you today. Went to Healesville via Kinglake from Essendon. Came back via Eltham and Greensborough. Great twisties and hills. Had lunch at the RACV Country Club for the first time.....very swish. This car is just sic

Still to do...

- upgrade stock speakers
- replace stock headlight & foglight bulbs with Philips DiamondVision bulbs
- possibly replace parker bulbs with white LEDs
- ECU tune (if one ever becomes available!)

Also going to keep an eye out for any air intake and exhaust improvements that become available...

Hi Casper,

where have you buy your LED lighting?
