Scratch X is quite mild far from Lethal IMO, akin to Megs 9 and 82, so more mild than the SSR 2.5 Eddie has used already. Have you got any 4 inch pads, a light cut pad 4 inch pad with SSR 2.5 to give some more cut would be my first route. If that does not cut it, then I would step up to...

Nice work - your bro is a right messy boy by the looks of it!

Cheers.

Nice work - where have you got the axle stands placed at the back? A good spray under the arches with AG Engine and Machine cleaner or Meguiars All Purpose Cleaners will speed up the Pressure Washers work.

From memory yes - in the top corner Should be 8 pins in the shape of the one on Brian R's pic.

I washed them with Hyper Wash. Then used Autoglym Metal Polish applied with the Wire wool, then stepped down to Meguiars NXT Metal Polish applied by a MF Cloth.

It's a Paps long range dream!

Some say Ph_Ugly!

A fine artists paint brush noramlly works better than the supplied brush. Worth a read: http://guidetodetailing.com/articles.php?articleId=27

PMSL @ it on the body! Imagine trying to pan with that....

If your nail catches it will need touching up and wet sanding back, done correctly it can look spot on, is one for the brave on larger marks. http://guidetodetailing.com/articles.php?articleId=27

Is a great combo, great depth and gloss for silver that ^^^^

Cheers all, is a bit of a labour of love.

Bubblegum!!!!! P21s gives deeper richer look, Nattys Blue a clearer wetter look. I always find myself using Souveran or P21s over the Nattys as I am happy with its look. The P21s spreads on and wipes off much easier.

I would look into trying something like Meguiars Scratch X rather then T Cut then. Though to do a whole car by hand will take some elbow grease.

You can apply SRP in circles or straight lines. I work it in both ways. The EGP I apply in straight lines as it allows me to get a thinner more even coat. For removal I just wipe them off with a soft microfiber cloth.

What car is it? Or what colour is the car- if it is metallic if will be base coat and laquer for sure. Does you finger nail catch in them?

70-80 quid a panel is the going rate per panel for PDR. I had one removed from my old 306's roof and cost about the same. I have the details of a guy in Swindon who maybe able to do a better price if you can take drive up. He has done and is doing work for other people on here.

Leave the t cut on the shelf is my best advice. Straight lines or circles, it will still put in finer swirl marks correcting the bigger ones. What defects are you trying to correct, what colour/paint type, single stage or base coat and laquer? What ever you choose use with care.

A wax protects and seal A polish -polishes, creates gloss and removes paint defects. Both do different jobs, but both are needed. As to which is best - lots of that is subjective when it comes to looks - ie some look better on certain colours than others, some look better to some peoples eyes...

Speed no, carnuba wax yes!

You need to look what settings you camera has with regards to its focus. On a Canon there should be something labelled AI Servo, which will allows the AF (Autofocus) points on the camera to pick up the bike or car and track and focus on it sharply. By half pressing the shutter and panning...
