Damask_Rose Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Hi everyone, Just introducing myself. I recently purchased my first Audi - an A4 B9 1.4TFSI Sport. It's a 2017 plate with just over £28k miles. I am based near Glasgow and also own a VW Golf. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant black probably more work to keep looking as good as in the photo as it will show up imperfections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Wise Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 You could try poorboys black wax from amazon if you fancy a wet look,mythos black is metallic as you say I have some but not used it yet I've used auto glym wax and car looks good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyre size is 225/50 R17 Hi Nexen Nfera or Roadstone Eurovis or Debica, all available on eBay and I just give my local tyre fitters £20 to fit, these are all mid range with excellent A-B ratings for fuel and wet grip, my car is used as a cab and I normally get 15k plus out of the fronts and 27k out of the rears and my tyres are getting hammered most days.

Poorboys is deffo a good shout, I used to use on my dark blue car at shows etc and covers minor swirling very well and looks very wet and glossy. I realise things have perhaps moved on with ceramic waxs etc but black hole is/was very good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
