Looking clean as fook. Wish mine was as good as that. Looking at getting machine polisher soon but got a vts engine to get fitted and looking at getting carbon bonnet before then too.

That looks ace buddy! Really nice and clean! Good correction of the swirls too.. how many passes did you have to go over to get all the swirls out?

Wicked red cleans up soooo well.. makes me miss my old beastie.. spent many hours detailing it..

Thanks Alex

spread it at speed 1 600rpm to start with then speed 2.5 1200rpm then up to speed 3 1500rpm then up to speed4 2000rpm then back down to 1200rpm then 900rpm to refine took five minutes on each section, can't remember the passes but thats the method i use, the idea is to get the car as nice as your old car was

Thanks for the comments people
