Talking Hello autopians!

Hi there people,

I'm new here and came across this site by accident while I was checking out MOL. I've never been a guy that washes my own car and I used to send it out to car washes.

And that's because I neve knew what swirls or cob-webbing were. Not until recently that I got a black Honda and started seeing swirls on it. (Previous cars were all silver & white - so forgive my ignorance)

Back then, as long as my car is washed, it's clean. But I have learned a thing or 2 from MOL recently and have put them to practice but there's still a looong way to go - btw, I work by hand currently.

Will definately consider a ROB sometime soon in the near future!

Cheers!

Honda paint is a royal PITA to keep marring free, especially black, BUT it is easily corrected. Welcome to the board!

Polishing swirls out by hand is a total PITA. Get a PC, or if you prefer, the Meg's G100. It's the same thing though.
