Looking good, what products are you using?
-
Just started detaling so I got a starter kit from howfords it's turtle wax shampoo and wax but I also bought a polish called mers in a blue bottle and turtle wax wheel cleaner as I run out of products il probably by some better quality stuff it come out nice though
-
looks good mate, good effort, for more durable and much better quality products have a look at www.waxamomo.co.uk for a wide variety of good products, if you get stuck either ask myself or Chris(waxamomo) on here for product advice etc.
we are always happy to help.

plus some good quality stuff works out cheaper than halfords sh!te as you use less for same/better result :wink:
-
Cheers for the advice guys i will have a look at the site you posted above and when I run out of a product il replace it with a better quality one just couldn't afford all the top stuff in one purchase expensive habit this detailing lol

alot of people think the wax gives you the good finish but its a myth im afraid, the finish comes from your prep, you could have the most expensive wax on the planet but it wont make an un-prept car look the mutts, whilst i was working at a nissan and mg maindealer years back i watched a kiddy apply wax to an unclayed not even polished car and spent my lunch hour wetting myself as i watched him struggle in a big way to remove the wax that had bonded like concrete to the paint, very comical.

You rotter you just watched him struggle lol bet he never did that agen though :grin:

lol yer but i did advise him it would need claying and polishing but it fell on def ears because he wanted to bosh it out as quick as poss(basicly bodge it) and he came a cropper, brilliant!!!!

Well that's his own fault then sucker
