While digging through some pics on my laptop I came across these from a few months ago and thought i'd share.

The car was looking rather tired for a low mileage car and needed some TLC.

I'll let the pics do the talking.

The car was washed/de-tarred and clayed as usual then onto the first stage of heavy compounding to remove the deep marks.

After many hours compounding, the car was swirl and scratch free just the compounding buffer marks which were then removed using a finer grade polish and pad combo.

The car was then waxed using collinite 915, finished pics enjoy....

Two day to polish and valet a car seems a long time

i've spent over 50hrs on some cars perfecting the paintwork. solid black is harder to correct then any other colour as shows up the slightest mark.
Anybody can mop/buff a car but it is when it is done correctly it shows. This is where it takes time and i dont use filler polishes like body shops.
