Spent the best part of today working my arse of cleaning the Rallye up which included, a wash and shampoo, one whole t-cut, intensive tar remover to remove tar traces believe it or not, glass polish on guess what,... all glass, old decals removed and replaced with brand new ones, one wax all over, scraped paint work off the sprayed wing mirror, bumper car on all blacks, and flash dash dashboard cleaner on you guessed it, the tyres.

Exterior is 99% done now, just got the front two wheels to refurb and job done.

I didnt have any back to black so made do with some random flash dash stuff I found in the shed, does the same job though! Not gonna bother with the door, dont even know why I bother with the exterior at all considering it will be seeing rally action in the future.

Couldnt be arsed with the weights

Iv done 3 of the wheels, just got the front two left. Only rubbed them down and resprayed them, I know it wont last but they probably wont stay on that long anyway. Will be coated the rear quarter with hammerite though.

Erm i use velcro mate and has never failed on me yet just make sure you attach enough 3 long strips do it... or you could use some industrial strength sticky tape but its more permanent.
