As if you can get it that good.
Ive tried twice getting marks and straches off my car with what strachx but it wont come off.
Dont think ive got the strength to get it off or not leaving it on long enough before removing it.

Spiers it's taking me ages to get it to this standard. Even with the machine polisher i've spent about 18 hours so far. My hands and arms ache but it's definantly worth it. Still not 100% as there are a few scratches that are too deep and will need to be wet sanded out

When were at fitp i'll have a look at yours and see how deep they are. Might be a case that they are too deep to be removed by hand. It is possible but takes alot longer. My old fez took around 40 hours to remove all the swirls by hand.

Thanks Morris

Cheers mate.
Bleep 18 hours. Theres where im going wrong, just not putting the time in.
I dont think they are deep cause when i first got out i rubbed them and they faded. All the marks except the stone chips should come out.

Never looked at the swirls, starting to notice them more though. I can see it taking 40 hours to clear swirls though, as they cover the whole car.

Can you use just normal polish to remove the swirls??

Hey guys, this will become a lot clearer in the next week, so start PM'ing each other depending where your coming from.

Myself, Scotty, ChrisCumbria, Becky and a couple of others set off at 6.30am from Coleshill Birmingham, 1 minute off the M42,(Scott, can you put up the Post Code of that carpark).

If anyone coming from the North wants to meet up with me before this, the best place is at 'Jaguar Cars Castle Bromwich' 5 mins from Coleshill, you can then follow me to the first meeting point. Please PM me if this is the case and i'll give you post codes and times etc.

We finally meet up in Ellington, see below, at 8.00am just about a mile from the venue. Just to note....KNOWONE WILL BE LEFT BEHIND!! PM Mobile numbers is a must also.
