A mop is an old method of getting rid of swirls, I suspect that they use that terminology but as the author says a machine polish. I can't imagine anyone uses the mop technique anymore?

Cheers Ginge for the explanation...

As a member of detailing world the idea of letting a dealer touch the paintwork scares the bejesus outta me.

Lol perhaps I should have rephrased myself. The stealer is sending my car to a professional detailers to be mopped.

Hope that puts all your minds at rest!

I wish I'd checked this thread before going to bed last night, I didn't sleep a wink. At least I cant enjoy watching the touring cars today, without this still playing on my mind.

Great stuff!! Just make sure you use a nice soft mit to wash it and a nice soft towel to dry it and you won't go far wrong! :afro:

Echo Jimble comments, soft and gentle is the way forwards as far as the paintwork is concerned...good to hear it all went well.
