I've been bitten by the detailing bug as well, and I'm after a decent polish, I've always used SRP but find that it's about as good as rubbing butter all over the car and doesn't really do anything.

Maybe it's just my technique, or I'm doing something wrong, but could you let me know what you'd recommend?

At the moment I'm loving Megs Tech Wax, comes up with a lovely finish, and two coats has lasted for the past month now.

SRP is an abrasive polish and if used correctly it can give excellent results by hand. The trick is to not over do it ie dont put a thick layer on. Make it as thin as possible and even across the panel. Follow this up with some patience and EGP followed by a wax and im sure you;d be very happy.

Nice car btw

what do you apply the srp with mate? Try doing it with a proper applicator pad! If that fails you could always try some 3M hand glaze which i think is really good!
looks fit anyway mate :eek:

Well I've always applied it with AG perfect polishing cloths. Which is the more important bit, applying it in the first place, or buffing it off after it's cured?

Car's looking very nice!

With the SRP apply it in a 1 foot square area and then work it in for a minute or so. Then buff off :)

what size are the wheels mate?? looks like a lovely motor! :)

Thanks for the comments, only needs a splitter to finish it off now, may well get a pug one, being as they're 30 odd quid.
