Machined my bonnet today, im detailing my car in sections as i dont have much time on my hands atm.
Very impressed with the Menzerna range i have to say 
Bonnet is virtually swirl free 
Method
I washed my bonnet using warm water & Dodo Juice Supernatural Shampoo,
Clayed it with Dodo Juice Born Slippy & CYC yellow clay,
washed it again with Dodo Juice Supernatural, then dryed using my super drying towel.
Then on to Menzerna polishes 85RD ect and then it got Dodo Juice Light Fantastic applied and tomorrow i will seal it with Dodo Juice Red Mist.
Pics
Comments/suggestions welcome

That looks insane Jamie!
Fancy dong mine once I've finished working on it and remove thick layer of dust covering it?

Looks so good! I went to a local bodyshop to enquire about machine polishing but they said the paintwork was in to poor condition to be worth doing  Not 100%sure they know what they are talking about, probably know more then me though!

Thanks Jim, atm i dont really have much time thats why im doing this in slices or id say yes for sure, Wayne has alot more experience than me he may be a better bet as i just do this because i want my car to be minty rather than for a living so he will be more pro.

Hmm get some closeup pics of your paintwork on a thread, did they use a depth guage because from what ive seen your car looks pretty sweet, swirls can be got out but if the paint is thin from previous machining that could pose a problem?

Hi guys just wondered what would be the best catback to go for?
I think i have got it down between the Super-sprint from KAM racing + "Saxsport" someone posted up earlier in the thread for me.
I have roughly £250 id spend, no ghey exhaust tips.
Id want it as light as possible + with maximum gains for price oh and it has to sound raspy like its on r0idz!
So which one or another?
Saxsport link
Supersprint link
Im sort of thinking Saxsport as its basically the Pugsport which was the muts nuts but for a spaxo!
Forgot to mention its to be paired with my Piper 4-1 & a Cais induction kit

Looking foreward to the saxport As for the machine polishing the reason was because it would show up the deeper scratches that cant be polised out. Apparently. The bonnet is in a particulary bad state. Like you said i will get some pics tomorrow and post them up.
