Just gave my rocker covers a good polishing with autosol and went a bit mental with the trim detailer in the engine bay.
What do ya reckon??

looks awesome!
how long did it take to get the covers looking like that and did you use the guide on here or a different method ?

I used three grades of sandpaper. Started with course, then medium, then a fine one. All done by hand.
I then washed off all the shite and rubbed a load of autosol into them and polished them off. it took about an hour and a half in total so im chuffed with the results.

looking good.
Looking good matey, rockers are easy to do with a bit of elbow grease, just a bit fiddley round the oil cap.

That looks neat, but you could've used a drill to make life easier :P
