Tell me about it, it's much easier to say Leeds.

Tingley always takes some explaining, still I guess it could be worse.

It's all very complicated, maybe a few scratches don't look too bad. Not.
Now where is Foxy when you need someone to polish?

Sounds good to me, you can find us most Fridays in Leeds at Akbars.

Having said that off to Fazenda's this week for a change, recommended if you like steak etc.

black unfortunatly shows up every mark. They are easy to put scratches into but if its a few then I would invest in a good washmitt and safe wash techniques. As for paint protection the c quartz or gtechniq or Nanolex systems are all good nanolex you could apply it yourself if u are confident but there are approved detailers who will do it for you hope this helps.

I'm lacking the polishing experience, but I'm a fast learner & will give it a go. Will you need claying first?

Hi All

Following on from your advice, I

Washed car
Dried
Clayed
Waxed using Collinite 476.

Here's the results, now all I need is some photography lessons.

Thanks for the tips, hopefully we'll manage to avoid the scratches for a while now.
