very easy mate, nice and easy to buff off, leaves a very nice finish for the wax  :cool:

looks nice but as has been said... tyres and trim

out of interest.. how much did the simoiz spray cost and how did use and have left?  will be interested to see how long it lasts

you also need a new rear wiper... I happen to know someone who sells 'aero' style rear wipers  :wink:  pm me for detailz :afro:
