(which there will be better pictures of Friday).

Today I revelled in the fact I'm no long leaking oil, have squeaking belts, or a slipping clutch. Mechanically sound FTW.
 
ZHP fitted and finished polishing and waxing.

Then went for a drive feeling all smug, sat in my shinny MR grasping my big knob!

Bought some scratchx to get rid of the fine scratches prior to being clayed,polished & waxed.

you clay before it, and scratch x is the polishing stage.... ;)

I would be surprised if scratch x by hand will help out with the hard BMW paint, but good luck! :)

:thumbsup:

Booked mine in for window tints. To be completed 10/8

What windows are you getting done?

Isn't it illegal to get the front and sides done? I want mine done but I've been told i can only have the rear done.

Oops I'm new to this detailing stuff.

Collectors and enthusiasts regard Meguiars Scratch X as a must have!
Tough enough to get rid of fine scratches but gentle enough not to leave you with more. Unlike the more aggressive cutting compounds, Meguiars Scratch X has an advanced formulation that will both remove fine scratches and swirls and enhance the paint colour.
The formula is relatively gentle compared to some scratch removers but don’t let that put you off as it’s highly effective and ideal for quick touch ups or adding a bit of life back to old and lacklustre paintwork. Scratch X will also remove light oxidation and blemishes.
There’s nothing worse than that feeling you get when you see a lovely great scratch down your otherwise perfect paintwork, well now you can get rid of it easily and quickly with Scratch X.
Meguiars Scratch X is suitable for use by hand and now Dual Action Polishers and issuitable for all paint finished including the softer clearcoat finishes.
A real must have product
Use for light scratches, swirls, light blemishes and oxidation.
Suitable for all paint finishes
