Haha no I'm more of a Jelly Belly person
I'd never thought really about getting a red car either until my mum got one, a red A3. After seeing that it was definitely a colour I wanted, plus it just seemed right for a GTI
The hex logic pads have been great, I'm just using the 5.5s for now but I can see myself placing an order for more of those and some 4" ones very soon! As for starting with SSR2.5, I told a small lie on my part. I had actually tested out the polishes and pad combos on the spoiler a few weeks ago, but that was really just a very small test and nothing that warranted writing about. From this I knew that I'd need a few passes with 2.5 on the orange to hit the swirls and there was also a very small patch of bird bomb etching that I wet sanded and needed to remove the sanding marks. I did three passes with 2.5 and five each with SSR2 and 1. It looked okay out in the daylight, not 100% correction but I'm waiting for the sun gun to arrive on Thurs to see the true extent of what's needed. All I aimed for today was a bit of improvement and getting some experience with the machine.
Never tried another metal polish so I may have to give the Mothers a go. Might sneak into the basket of my next detailing order
Haha I would come Rebecca but I made a pact with myself when I sold the Alfa that I'd never touch another black car ever again! Anyway weather for the rest of my week off looks miserable and it's actually chucking down with rain right now so I might not even get much more done on my car! Typical!
