Looks a lovely job. What was your pad and polish combo...? Any close ups on the swirl removal...what percentage did you get it to?

Thanks Angelus, unfortunately I didn't get any close up shots of the swirl removal, but I used the 3m fast cut plus with a sponge pad, buffed it with cotton and then applied 3m finishing glaze to remove the hologram and swirling with a microfibre pad. Then finished up with an autoglym hand polish not too sure on the percentage though but the car is like a mirror now so I'm chuffed with the results!Angelus666 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 21, 2019 11:08 pm Looks a lovely job.
