    No I have only really been around for the last one which I couldn't make.
    Just I do be on here and this lad was in that lads house etc :)
    Get a meet going some day soon and I'll make it to it.

    And I'm the far side, near Tullamore/Portarlington :)

    I'd love to go to one of the meets, I mostly just read on the forum but would probably be more involved if I got to know some people I'd say (and see some nice cars while I'm at it :))

    Quick question. I have three pads for my DA, green orange and black.

    Which is the coarse one and which is the polishing one.

    Next up do the pads have to be wet for application or does it matter?

    Kildare, think that's technically the midlands right?

    Ahh yeah man, what part? I'm only 10 mins from kildare county where I am.

    In other news I touched up the car the other day in a couple of small spots and I can't say I'm overjoyed with the results. It is a little darker due to age etc I suppose.
    If I murder it with a medium cut polish will that help?

    It will help a bit but the ideal way would be to repaint the whole panel, I have been thinking of doing this myself on my Honda as I might be selling soon.

    Me too, but Kildare is part of Greater Dublin (aka the GDA), governed by the Mid-East authority (as opposed the Midlands authority). The GDA is the basis of the figures "the Dubs" quote when talking about population "of Dublin" or wealth "of Dublin", but at the same time consider everything outside Dublin county itself as completely seperate, "the sticks", despite requiring those additional counties to make their case. Geography and Socioeconomics are not their strong suits. :D

    If your pads are Hexlogic brand, Orange = coarse, Green = medium, black is finishing.

    Keep them dry if possible, too wet and it will dilute the cutting ability of the polish. They will get fairly wet from the polish but that's fine.

    Pred - He's gone and I'm washing my car now then heading off. I didn't even know you were back!
