Cheers lads. I use products like maguires or auto glym only. What i did was gave the car two washea uaing maguires shampoo the purple one lol then i used my maguires water magnet to dry it. After the sun went abit i used maguires compond polish a maguires application pad and microfibre cloth. You work small areas at a time rubbing on the compound in circle motions then give it a few mins and buff it off with the microfibre. It will take about 2 hours to use this on the whole car after that you need to seal it. I will seal it with autoglyms super resin polish then after that ill be using a carbinaria wax. But i am also going to use my cuz auto mopping machine to get it looking the best it can. Halfords got a 3 for 2 offer on take advantage. :)

If you've got access to a d/a then Menzerna FG400 on a white Menzerna pad got rid of all swirls on mine with a couple of passes. :cool:

I like some Autoglym products, their glass polish and aqua wax are very good, as Damien says Auto Finesse products are excellent. I'm also a big fan of Kleenfreaks wax.

Shows the big difference between rep and genuine R32 front bumpers.
