7 hours all by hand but well worth it! Foam, wash, clay, Polish, wax, sealed, mud flaps dressed, and windscreen sealed!

Thanks guys, by hand I had a very sore back in my little garage as just after I washed it it then hammered it down! Now I know what a contortionist feels like!
 
That does look nice. Hard work but it certainly paid off.
Did you machine polish it all or was everything literally by hand as you said. Its just that I cant see a single swirl mark in your photos. Especially telling are the photos under artificial light which as we all know are notorious for showing everything, but yours not a blemish.
Those wheels look particularly nice, I'm thinking of some new ones for mine, instead of reconditioning my existing 107's, do you have any photos of them? How long have you had them, no issue with them etc?

Thanks
 
Thanks guys,

Yes was all done by hand, keep thinking about machine polishing but haven't have the kahunas to buy one and try it.
There are a couple of marks which I've been reading about compounds to get rid of them.

The wheels are 313 reps in 19" really good alloys, and love the look of them. They were from CM wheels.

There wll be no swirls visible because of camera angle and photos if anything hide defects.
not a dig btw the car looks good in the pictures :thumbsup:
