I said I wouldn't have left bits of polish around the bonnet vent because I am nearly as anal as yourself :lol: Other than that it looked great 8)

Spike, looking at some of the before pics, what had you done to swirl mark it so bad?

I'll be ordering his recommendation on washing mitt, shampoo etc. Can't be a bad thing to take advise from him...it was a top job.

I thought you might say Sainsbury's handwash or summit! I always take mine to the Shell jet wash before hand washing, but my paintwork is pretty sh1te to be honest. The bugs got the better of me a couple of years ago.

I might treat it to an Autofinesse treatment some time :D

Hi Bud,

Used the one in St Albans - BUT.....the 2 areas done are looking VERY tired :(

Id suggest a good bodyshop...or....will it polish out? If so get it done at a detailer and get teh car detailed same time.
