Polish ? ? ?

[Onyx]

+1 for SRP, great product (one of my favs).

Word of advice: On the cutting scale of polishes, SRP falls way short. It's strength however is it's ability to fill the scratch rather than remove it completely!

You'll find that the more 'hits' you give a panel, the better the result - this because the fillers are doing it's job. Topped with a good LSP and your paintwork will look great!

Word of caution: Use a shampoo that's 'strips' and your hard work at polishing will be undone with the fillers and LSP quickly washed away :wave:

IIRC it includes 60g clay, but the special is still not bad.

I am going to be using Meguiars Ultimate Compound this weekend after a really good clean.

Friend of mine bought it and gave it a try, the stuff is amazing. He had some sand scuff marks/general wear and tear from the elements on his driver side door which was becoming apparent as the previous coat of wax and polish was being washed away. After a very thorough was and dry, he applied some to the spot, the stuff cleared it up like it was nothing. Can't wait to give it a try. Will post pics, etc when I'm done.

Try: Autoglym : High Definition Wax or a quick Autoglym Supreme Polish. Works wonders in my opinion, customers opinion and experience... Good Luck! :grin:

JHB: Autoglym importers: 011 908 5446, might be cheaper than buying in shops. :=):
