I was so looking forward to taking some photos of the shiney shiney but it looks like it'll have to wait until I polish it again - probably in about 3 years time. JohnC You could always wash and dry it and then follow up with one of these which will restore that just waxed look: http://www.seriousperformance.co.uk/Products,78,toView_772.html http://www.zainoeurope.com//index...-grand-finale-spray-seal/p_8.html Zaino is expensive and there are stock delivery problems but it is good.

But doesn't it like nice the first time the rain beads up on a newly waxed car?  It's just about bearable! TimR Yeah it looked nice with the rain beading off. I took it to get the tracking done yesterday and realised I hadn't really done anything with the windows except a basic wash so they're streaky and from the inside there's no sign of that 5 hours hard work        The Motor Forum Forum Index -> Your Cars Page 1 of 1
