No mate, I've been doing it as a hobby for friends and family for about 7 years and am now in the process of starting up full time.

the M3 looks Beautiful. Great work.

Did the M3 have any swirl marks? The paint looks fresh from the factory.

Ah cool, is there much market for it down your way?

I'm tempted to say can you PM me a bit of info about how to start off if you don't mind?

The M3 Is my mums, it was sprayed about 9 months ago(used to be silver), and wet sanded. The paint work is amazing on it, such a pleasure to work with.

Depends on the condition of the car, if it needs machine polishing/correcting then I will, if not then I prefer to polish by hand.
