right i used to be a valeter, but working for a company we used to get everything in bulk and as such not realy get name branded stuff, it would come in a 5L bottle and just say finishing polish lol, i did get myself some when i left at a 5 finger discount rate (SHHHHH :rolleyes: ) but iv used it all up :sad:
but what i want to know is what finishing polish would ppl recommend as when it comes to brand names i aint realy got a clue lol
i have a jet black mk2 golf gti, the paint work is only around 5 years old so all it needs is a good finish polish to make it glimmer.

so does no1 have any recommended polishes then????? :sad: :sad:

maybe think about purple haze if you are looking for a decent wax for a dark coloured car... although swissvax onyx would probably be a better bet... if you have deeper pockets!

i must be a jedi... knew what you were thinking before you even said anything :smug:
