I did run my own detailing company for a while and I wasn't unusual for me to spend 5 days+ polishing and coating cars for people.

Talking of cleaning cars, I’ve got the sunroof seal of the merc in the washing machine at the min, trying to soften it up as a new one is £200. | |||

It’s not too bad to be honest, scrubbed it before and still soft, gonna soak it in silicone and see what happens, nothing to lose. Found 2 being broken for parts locally so fingers crossed. Cars been sat out side for 3+ years so needs tlc. | |||

Won’t be doing that anytime soon, it’s a project to be fair, the boot lid and bonnet are getting repainted in German police green(oddly enough a rover group colour), the white corners will be getting blown in after arches tidied and roof may get wrapped. Doors are already wrapped so they are ok. It’s not bad in all honesty, I work on cars everyday and I know lots of people who can do bits for me but will most likely tackle it myself. | |||

Being interested in growing your own food more, developing home energy production systems and living a non material lifestyle, being more interested in fixing things than replacing them, wanting to live cheaply for its own sake as well as from necessity." Ah got you, since energy prices went up I setup a solar charge system, use it for phones and tablets etc, rarely use mains power except to shower and wash clothes, usually once to twice a fortnight I throw washing machine on( I live alone so not a big deal). Have solar lights in the bedroom and solar power banks if need be and I can boost these in the van while working. My phone and tablet were purchased damaged and repaired by myself and if the kids break there stuff I patch them up. | |||

"Cars, 2 that I track when I can, take them down the drag strip, done the odd high speed airfield run when they pop up. Gym and powerlifting, compete at an international level. Astronomy, spend ages looking through the telescope. Collecting world war 1 and 2 memorabilia. Watch collecting, not just for the sake of collecting as they all get worn." What cars do you run? My 10 year old is obsessed with WW2 at the min, getting a nice collection, mainly some uniforms, badges and models made of bullet casings. I make WW2 era tamiya models, nothing accurate, just a bit of fun to kill time. Can’t beat a good time piece. | |||
