What the fuck does he expect from a car was that washes loads of cars... two buckets and a water magnet.....

Shame on the body shop for fucking it up, but for £80.....

The moral of his story is wash the car yourself you lazy foobar, and stop skimping pennies. Typical bodyshop fuck up, seen so many cars with the same problem lol.

damn its even worse than if the owner had left the stone scratches on. just needs a finer compound to get those buffer marks out.

Just looks like swirl marks from the buffer, just get some 3m machine polish and a black soft pad and go over it all with that should get it all off. If it was say a silver car it wouldnt be that noticable its because its a dark colour it shows it up more

Thats seriously shocking, how can anyone run a business like that??

Why would you take a nearly new Saab to a pikey hand wash too?

On the other hand I'd love to do the correction.

i've seen folk take some fancy cars into those kinda car washes it makes me shudder, especially when i see them bring out the brush to wash the paint .. aghhhh!!!

but true would be fun to see what kind of correction you could do to it :y:

There are some decent rotarys about cheaper than the DA's now. I need some new kit, to help speed any details I do up.
