Help! Scuffed Lugano Wheel

Hi All When I thought my day couldn't get worse it did...managed to scuff my wheel on a car park kerb. After ridiculous amounts of swearing and still generally being annoyed with myself, I thought plenty of people must have done the same. Just wondered if anyone knows of/can recommend a wheel refurb...

Re: How often should I polish, seal and wax?

Thanks Taryn and Jim. I'll be using r222 Wax which appears to be good(from reviews) but not that durable. So guess I may have to top up wax about one a month after a thorough wash.

Re: Confirmed Week 45 Changes

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one currently left not knowing for sure! Spogshd it will be very interesting to see if you get any updates. Can't see me being very happy with vw if this is the case. I'll await with interest when the week 45 cars are delivered.

Re: How often should I polish, seal and wax?

Thanks Alan. I was thinking about waxing each quarter and anticipating a full clean once a year so sounds like I'm not too far off the mark. Obviously water beading will be the giveaway! Have lambswool mits to wash with using 2 bucket method to hopefully keep swirl marks to a minimum.

How often should I polish, seal and wax?

Hi all. Am planning a marathon clean as soon as I get my car but wondered how often I should fully clean my car. I plan to wash, clay, polish(x2), seal and wax my car as soon as it arrives. I will then wash weekly after everyday use (car is garages at night). Just wondered how often I should top up ...

Re: Confirmed Week 45 Changes

Has anyone seen the week 45 changes in cars now built? My car was built in week 44 so have missed out if vw are doing anything- however spoke to my dealer who swears they know nothing about changes other than engine upgrade on petrol 2.0l. Will the week 45 updates apply to the tdi 170?

Sonus car care products

Hi all. Just wondered what people think to the sonus range of car care products. Haven't even got my new roc yet but already planning a marathon cleaning session when it arrives- rinse, wash, clay, polish, seal and wax the paintwork alone. Like the idea of using a single brand where possible to ensu...

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

Hi all. I've just been notified of my build date being confirmed for week 44 (next Thursday). Can't wait to get hold of it now. Interestingly my dealer still knows nothing of week 45 changes. Chances are I miss out by days but then again it means my roc should be here in matter of few weeks. Been to...
