^^ yup it will now be a service.
rich the poorboys was a great product, taking the handle off gave better control and it then was easier to apply the power.
as i said yesterday i will get the proper pics up. as those do not do the work justice! but you can see the tread pattern in the silver paint so must be good eh?
have a few more cars lined up. gti golf. rs4, and a 911, and ml 500 so its looking good

Can tell I was tired last nite repeated what ben had already said about the products
It was a learning process, at first i think we where putting to much product on and as we went on, we learned processes to spread the polish more evenly. Also got a feel for which pads to use and the different speeds to use as well.
You can do all the reading in the world, but until you have a go and get the feeling for the products and the kit.
Want to re do mine this weekend with the poorboys, then my mums black KA and the Maz is the next one.... (well if she still wants it doin) Matt, just let us know when you want it doing.
Over the moon with the result. Its an RS6 we got BTW ben.

I have owned one for over 6months and have used it loads of times so i am aware of that I'm just saying accidents do happen and tbh i'd rather have an accident or a schoolboy error on something cheaper than some of those motors. Also different manufacturers paints vary in how hard they are and some mark/hologram surprisingly easily.

Can totally appreciate what your saying....hence why we are trying the other cars and want to learn the selction of polishes... etc to use. I have delibrately tried to start with some cars for different paint finishes and manufacturers.
