Wanted to show of my hard graft....
« on: 07 February 2014, 22:42 »
Hi guys,

I detailed the neighbours Touran not so long ago. Used mostly AS products and a slightly abrasive compound with my orbital polisher as there were big swirl marks from garage car washes.

finished with two coats of AG HD Wax.

can put up all products used if anyone wanted (canna remember off the top of me head)

before....





after....

Your neighbours are lucky people.  Hope there's a few drinks in it for you.
