did you do a feature thread on this one kev?

Nah mate, I dont post many pics of cars I work on now, think the brother in law posted some pics over on a subaru thread though, but nothing recently.

I probably should do a thread on a car from before and then after and detail my work, I'm sure it would help other newbies.

I did a black car recently, with the right tools and patience good results can be achieved. I'd listen to dan and guy, these guys are good.

Some pics from recent black car.








Preperation is key, time is important, patience is important and knoweldge is imperative, esp when machine polishing.


I think you've forgotten to put the pics of the car up and just put a mirror on the floor :shocked:

Stunning results

Why thankyou.
