All this took about 6 - 7 hours to do, but the results speak for themselves.
All the product i use are from Alex Creasey on GTROC. Top notch stuff and very reasonably priced. Im sure there will be a trader on here with some good products though.

Thanks for that, its interesting to see that you apply the paint cleaner after the polish as it is the other way around on Meguirs stuff.

How often do you do that then? Every month or a lot longer?

There is not a swirl mark in sight on your car, im not jealous! :wink:

It really does look stunning mate.
White is such a hard colour to polish compared to yours.
