Nice, what sort of cutting compound/polish are you using?.

I bought a halfords 12v one recently, as my arms don't take polishing very well. What polish did you use?

I spent about three hours polishing yesterday, and then went on a 250 mile round trip ito Wales today. Bloody bugs splattered everywhere now!

I cant undarstand how people can polish in 3 hours lol it takes me about 12 to15 hours to just polish the car.

What it takes me roughly 1 1/2 hrs top and people can vouch at the gloss of my car when we went to the rr day i bet you fall asleep for 12 hrs and then polish for 2 hrs lol

I couldn't spend 12 hours polishing, I've not got that much time, plus it just gets covered in bugs and dirt anyway lol.

3 hours wasn't the whole car though

[volvokid]

I envy you all lol

Better still pay someone to do it for you - life is waaaaaaaaaaaaay to short to spend all your free time washing cars that will be filthy the next time you pull off your driveway! :mischievo

Yeah but a sealed & waxed car is a lot easier to keep clean than a dirty
car getting dirtier.

Perks off the job :B_thumb:

That was after i washed it and hand dried it :(

Then Blacked all the black trims and wheels, looks lovely :D

Ah, already got some of that myself, trouble with G3 is it's a bit too course, you need to use a finer compound like G10 afterwards, mine still looks a little hazy after just the G3.
