Local motor factors - I get mine form Brown Brothers.
Also any bodyshop paint suppliers that sell 3M stuff should cary it, look on the 3M site for local ones.
Also B&Q do there own brand blue painters tape if you get really stuck. I would just use normal stuff white stuff though anyway if need be.

Cool thanks for the suggestions guys! I have got some stuff leftover but left some residue first time I used it so just prefer the blue stuff if I can get it. Think I have sold myself short though, a guy with a £30k Evo Type VIII is selling it and wanted a machine polish just to improve things rather than make it perfect, and stupidly agreed to do it for £60 AND I have to drive there, as he is a friend of a best friend. Think I may need to renegotiate, I was half asleep when I spoke to him lol!

As long as he does not expect miracles and defect correction as such it will be ok.
A pc and a good polish will still rejuvenate his paintwork and make it look loads better.
Make sure you use a good paint cleanse afterwards (Swissvax/Zymol HD) and a good wax and he will be over the moon
That's the thing - he just seems keen to get as much for his money as he can. I asked him to send me some photos but don't really show too much paint detail but by sounds of things it is badly swirled. I think £60 for driving to his house, wash, clay, polish using Menzerna IP and FF then SRP is very reasonable, especially as I will be doing wheels, tyres, plastics and maybe arches too. Not going to bother waxing too for £60, at the end of the day he can afford it if he wants it, not going to waste hours and hours especially as I don't know the guy myself. Plus it is black!

Extremely resonable, I'd want at least £200
Ha NOOO. Like I said I was half asleep and just kind of plucked a figure out the air, it will cost me at least £10 to get there and back too in petrol. Think I am just going to say I need more and if he doesn't like it then he can get a nice local Kosovan to do it.
At the end of the day I'm not working hard all day for £60 when it will add a lot more than that to the value of the car.
