Hey Everyone...

[agpatel21]

Hey, I just wanted to say hey to everyone as I just joined I have been looking around this for months and never really posted anything, so I thought this would be a good first one to introduce myself.

I am Ankeet, I go to school in North Carolina, NC State :-D for Mechanical Engineering. woohoo (Starting 2nd yr in jan)

Right now I am doing a Co-Op at a Aviation company (TIMCO Aviation Servicies in Greensboro, NC) doing Engineering design work for interior modifications for commercial airlines

My dad is a chemical engineer and works for a automotive paint company (SEM Products small company don’t know if anyone has herd of them) but he has taught me a lot about automotive paint and the technical side of it and how to clean and polish and wax paint mostly in a laboratory setting for there own paint testing.

I have a new 2006 Volkswagen GTI MkV in Tornado Red and this is my first new car so I am only getting the best stuff for her.

Using Klasse AIL, wolfgang DSG (or Klasse SG, don’t know yet have not tried the DSG). Natty Past wax and other goodies, Got a PC to use and have ssr1 bc it’s a new car so not many scratches on it just the dealer provided ones as people say grr them!



Some Pics of the Car:

:( Cute car....

haha....jk...i know most girls call my car cute but w/e... its all good...

the black stripe on the bottom if a decal anyone know a good way to keep it clean its a matt finish so any wax that gets on it never comes off it seems...

Hi A Patel!
Hey, don't worry. When a girl says you or your car is cute, it essentially means it looks hot. :awesome: We just don't speak the same way you do. It's all good!!
My photos won't download so I can't see the car until later, as I would like to see the decals you are talking about. ;) Lauren and the red vette

Welcome to AG..... Volkswagen, I love them. Had a Rabbit GT back in the day (The 80s). That's before they came out with GTI. I might still have a pic of it somewhere. Again, welcome to AG.

[agpatel21]

wow, i dont know what to say i am kindda suprised i have been on alot of forums and only a very few (maybe one out of like 5 that i am in) have been as welcoming as you all have been!

Oh, i do love the MK1 Rabbits, they say the MK5 is more like the MK1 and i think os also, the MK2-MK4 were kindda crappy IMO
