i do it, dont care what you guys say.... im someone that has done it and done it for years, never ever had a probelm. but nothing like what your talking about, you dont go puting a hole bottle of the shit in the water or rubing it on with a rag. Its the main way i keep my white wheels so perfectly white.

i used a HALF a cap of kero in a 15L bucket of warm water with megs shampoo. Give her a wash, than wash again with megs shampoo and normal watrer, it really pulls all the shit off the paint and any old polish and crap thats been on there for ages, give you a fresh base to start with.... you have to use polish/sealent and a wax but dont just leave it.

i havnt got any pics on this pc that dose it justise, but i can tell you now if you do it right it works sweet. and i only use the kero when its needed not every wash and polish maybe twice a year.

im with you, i dont do it all the times just a few times a year, but i do use a lot, i spray it on and wipe it in with rag, been doing it for many years

I knew an old bloke who use to add a shot of diesel (30mls) to a bucket of warm soapy water on his XB falco, and even after 20 years it looked like new!

He also used corn flour to polish his car! a metal polisher also told me once to use corn flour to bring up a shine on metal surfaces.

I use zymol products on my cars :)

My grandfather uses kero in his car wash and his cars have always looked excellent.. although he has only had 2 camry's in the time i have been alive haha. Either way, his first camry's paint still looked like new when he sold it. (about 2001) And his current camry is the same. I have only done it to my car once (when i washed it at his place) and it came up excellent. I think what deano has written is spot on, i dont think people should be worried about what it does to the paint.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
