    Wheres the best place to get a wash mitt?

    Not keen on the serious performance one . Its too thin when loaded with water . I use use either a meguiars mitt or the one from carwaxnwax.com . Both are much thicker and feel better quality . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/lambwas.htm

    SRP & EGP applied by hand

    Use the german applicator all over the car with the SRP not just any scratched areas . I use the microfibre applicators for waxes and imo they don't absorb anymore product than the yellow foam pads , after all they are foam and foam by nature absorbs things . Once the microfibre applicators have...

    SRP & EGP applied by hand

    I use these . Much better than the little yellow foam pads as they actually give some bite when you polish . http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/pb68polish.html

    What should i look for?

    Check for dents down the side of the bodywork . Also on the bonnet where they sometimes get pushed down to lock it and dent very easily .Check the whole exhaust system , they rust and drop to bits after only a couple of years . Also condition of the brake discs and pads .Any lights on the dash .

    Trophy wheel colour code? (Mods move if required)

    I looked at the cossack grey the other day . It is very very close but there are quite a few that are " close " lol . None are 100% perfect , but if you were doing all 4 wheels it wouldn't matter , if they were used just as a touch up you'd probably see the difference whatever paint you use ...

    I'd use white spirit as gloss paint is oil based and takes a fair while to completely go off .

    WHAT WAX IS MORE DURABLE ? AND WHAT SHAMPOO ?

    The turtle wax " wax it wet " won't affect the p21's or srp and egp mate . I used to use it on my iceberg 172 and looks wise it always comes up good . Give it a try , i'll bet your surprised :) Don't be put off by the price , its alot cheaper than the Duragloss Aquawax and does exactly the same...

    WHAT WAX IS MORE DURABLE ? AND WHAT SHAMPOO ?

    Collinite 845 and 476 are both very durable and very easy to apply / remove . My choice is still the xxx hardcore past wax . If you wax at least once a month with any wax durablity shouldn't be an issue tbh . I tend to use a different wax each time and build up the layers . I like the Pinnacle...

    Spraying objects with chrome paint.

    You can't get chrome paint , well not paint that is available to the general public anyway . Its more of a silver colour , plastikote make one but when you apply the sealer it goes grey . You might see adverts saying its " chrome " but you'll never get the finish of true chrome plating .

    We used to use jewellers rouge at work for fine scratches . If they are too deep though you'll end up deforming the glass . http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/new-jewellers-rouge-150-ml-fine-glass-scratch-remover_W0QQitemZ170119541357QQihZ007QQcategoryZ11702QQtcZphotoQQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
