Polished with mirror finish for the summer

[spittingllama]

Just finished a polish on my Z4 today...

Just thought I would show off the mirror finish.

What do you guys use to polish?

 

[Stu Boy]

That is mirror finish

I certainly don't use whatever you used to polish that, fantastic job 8)

Thanks I'm really happy with it.

It was just Black Colour Magic Turtle Wax. Just waiting now for to the first lot of bird c**p to mess it up.

Crikey - Turtle Wax - remember that from my youth - don't hear much about it on here but that finish is brilliant!

i can't wait for the product snobs to jump on this , just shows with some effort great results can be had with minimum investment .
Im certainly no expert OP but i would look for a sealer now to keep what you have looking good

Wish could get a finish like that

Bang goes my other thread about spending a fortune to get mine looking shiney. Will stick to the G3 with some elbow grease.

Best cancel the poor boys order!

Thanks will give that a go. I'm a total novice at cleaning cars. Used to take my old car to automatic car wash.

I wish you lot would stop recommending polish. That is a shiny looking Zed OP, so I suppose I will have to buy some Turtle Wax too :roll:

Along with waiting for Mr Wilks's recommended Autosmart polish to be delivered next week, I shall have a nice choice of polish.

Eeny meeny miny mo....

I take my current car (Z4 Coupe) to the local IMO / ARC car wash.

At this point, several well known forumite detailers have probably choked on their hot chocolate in sheer horror

Another angle for anyone who's interested...
