Hi folks,



first thing I want to say is a huge thank you to all on this forum, since finding you a few weeks ago I cannot believe the amount of information and most importantly, enthusiasm, I have got from looking in here.



I have always been keen on keeping my cars really clean but this forum has encouraged me to take things to a new level. It is Fantastic !! with a capital F.



I live in the UK but have bought a PC Das kit from Autopia along with some Sonus Enhance and FF, also some Klasse SG and a few other bits. All the products I`ve used so far have just blown me away, they are incredible. The PC, I just cannot believe, how have I got to 45 years old without one of these until now ?



I am also a bit of a Zymol fan and was recently reading about the Sampler Kits, I got on the case and tracked down what I think was the last one in the UK. this afternoon I had a quick play with the Destiny Glaze on the bonnet and front wing of my Audi A3 that I have been working on getting experience with the PC pads and polishes. I have machined it and put on 3 coats of SG over the past week then the Destiny. I am really impressed with the SG and the Zymol on top looks great. A quick picture is attached, not at all to the standard you guys prep paintwork to, but I am really pleased for a first go.



So a big thank you again and I am really looking forward to learning loads more on here.



Andy

Welcome to the world of OCD and that `bonnet` (er hood) looks slick as a mirror!

Congratulations and great work there! It might not be at the level of the experienced top notch professionals around here but it is nice and as an absolute beginner myself I know how much satisfaction and pride there is in first accomplishments. What might be nothing to others is huge step forward for us.

Great! Don`t be discouraged if you are a fan of Zymol because there are quite a few doubters of Zymol out there in cyber space.



However, you should also challenge your lsp`s and detailing methods with the many excellent examples that you will see on the boards from a variety of products and steps.



Happy waxing!
