Although the paint on the car is in good condition with very few swirls, it has only been polished by hand once in it`s life and only washed and dried once a month



Would of preferred to do the exterior by machine but hopefully will be getting one around christmas time. Didn`t have any clay or fine cutting compound due to buying other products from my wholesalers earlier this week. The process was



Omikron Super Gloss wash

Fare`cla G3

3M Swirl remover

Magnum Top Gear Instant Shine Polymer glaze, 2 hour curing time

All done by hand,



Obviously machine job would have given much better result but that will do for a little while







Tyres,mud flaps and bumpers

JAL Chemicals tyre rejuvinator

Wheel arches

Omikron RD Black spirit based satin paint



Chrome and windows

Omikron klearview blue ammonia free window cleaner

Thanks for the replies guys. A couple more photos for you. I like to make discussion a little more colorful sometimes.



My father was a pro photographer but that has not rubbed off on me but they didn`t turn out too bad overall
