Yellow Dave - This is wearing the Spirit sample.

Also, whilst I'm here, wondering if someone can help me. There is one main thing I am not confident on, and its exhausts and wire wool. Ay tips/techniques?

What would you have done with these? This is the best I could get them, however I held back a lot in fear of causing damage

Didn't touch the hood, was brand new and put on a few days ago so needed nothing.
 
For exhausts, I always use auto sol and a kitchen brillo pad to clean it up then a micro fibre and meguirs metal polish to make it proper shiny.

For really bad exhausts (ones that haven't been touched for years and years!) I use wire wool instead of the brillo pad.

Works a treat!

Do you literally just scrub it? The thing that gets me about wore wool is do you do it on its own, soapy water, metal polish??
 
Yeah, just apply the polish to the wool, rub it until it's at the level of shiny/clean you're happy with.

Stainless steel is so so so forgiving and you'd have to use a hammer and chisel to scar it permanently.
 
Autosol here to, I've never experienced any exhausts that haven't been resolved with Autosol and an MF but I've not done many tbf.

Lovely cheers Daniel, to be safe I think I'll do it on my girlfriends car first ;) Currently using Auto Finesse Mercury, autosol worth buying or am I good with what I have?
 
That colour! I was thinking 'pfft, black porsche' then you posted the flake. Mmmm

i also use autosol.

A couple on here can vouch for how s**t my tips were when I first got the car, then RDH autosolled and wire wooley them and they a&e up immense.

Ill try and get a pic
 
00-Grade wire wool. Your head will tell you it will scratch it but it doesn't. Stainless is pretty tough!

I use AF mercury at the minute but theres nothing wrong with Autosol.
 
I used the finest grade wire wool with AF mercury and it did leave a fine haze behind on the stainless end can for my motorbike. Using mercury with microfibre just wasn't aggressive enough to remove the marks. In the end I now use a scouring kitchen pad as Daniel suggest. Really cleans well but diesnt seem to incure the minor marks the wire wool will create.

Lovely colour.
