Why not try it yourself? Use Meguires Clay bar to make sure your not just putting wax over 'dirt', followed by a light compound (t-cut or Megs own) and then to finish Megs NXT, the secret is in the clothes, i use cotton stockenette for the compound application, and microfibre clothes to take the polish off.

I've tried doing it myself and just cant get it right :oops:
Black is the worst colour in the world to keep nice it shows every little scratch and , gets dirty within 5 minutes of driving the bloody thing

Gary of Refined Reflections is probably the best guy in this part of the UK and he's mobile. If you can afford a quality job he would be my first choice :thumb:
