Problem is if you do something wrong on a customer's car, Mikey, that company will be liable. Hence you will need to do a lot of practise on odd car parts.
Best thing I can suggest is try this; Get a panel, pref quite a large one like a bonnet that has good condition paint. Use a rough side of...
It is, but there is always that little bit of uncertainty, hence using a lower amount of money rather than mine ;) (joke, I spent mine on my trip to Mongolia :S)

SRP is a filler polish and while it will look good for a couple of days/weeks the fillers will eventually come out and it will look the same.
Also I am willing to bet Ali's sizeable trust fund that you have not sealed the paint after polishing . . ...
Nothing wrong with that lot what so ever, used it on my own car for years, still use SRP and P21s (although it has now been gheyly named R222 just to confuddle people) to this day!
Re colours, I barely change the waxes I use on different coloured cars. The depth and shine come from the...
Cheers all, colour is one of 13 made. Guy is a sucker for the sales chat! Walked into the Porsche garage a few years back, after getting a flat/blowout on the motorway (in the old shaped model in silver with barely any mileage), came home that afternoon with this! Madness!

I usually get the swirls in the sun or under a decent Halogen lamp. Autofocus on Macro picks them up no problem at all. But failing that, as the two above me said, MF is a good start.
True Mikey, I just love your face tbh.
Have to agree mate, with all my posts about it I absolutely love that colour. That or white, being the showy barsteward that I am ;)
Justin, are you sure there are two sets of items, or are you just having problems with your eyes since buying the Lambo.

Mikey pipe down you amateur detailer wannabe ;) x
But I was looking forward to doing yours!!! Yeah no worries, bob over and I'll show thee!
Make that one extra £ sign and you are about right for a year's spend ;)
