Looking good Lee

What stuff do you use to make it really shiny? Polish,deep shine,wax?

Atm my brothers is looking really flat and yea it does look shiny once done but up close there's allsorts of scratches

I reckon it needs a really good buff with a machine.

What you reckon mate?

, well its been resprayed on both sides last year so that helps

but i bought this 3 stage wax from halfords called black car wax or something daft

basically everything you apply is black and deepens the shine like you require i highly recommend it! takes a while but results are worth it

i do it every couple of months or so

this is it:
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_753637_langId_-1_categoryId_165671

brilliant stuff not much money either really

cheers guys

dan it gives you instruction on how to apply it basically apply the wax let it dry to a haze,then spray this liquid stuff onto a microfibre cloth wipe off the wax then do the next stage and repeat again till the final stage easy enogh just time consuming.

cheers mike looking forward to the meet are many coming? il get the car all cleaned up again for photos
