2 Day Wax!
 
A customer at work who runs a large Valet business dropped in a nice pot of Zymol wax a few weeks ago as a 'thank you'. So, with nothing better to do on Sunday and most of Monday I set about Claying, deswirling, polishing and waxing. Took ages, but the car has never reflected like it does now. Pics arent great as in my garage off my phone.

Cheers didlo, since burning through the paint on my Mrs car (due to a bad previous paint job!), I havent, and nore will I be braving a mop/polisher. I have done the best I can by hand. I used Meguirs Swirl X which was hard work but effective enough. When I have some money I want to take it to a Pro and get it machined/paint corrected, but happy enough for now.

Thats a good idea mate. See what deals can be done.

Scott.T 17-05-2011 05:20 PM

What product was it ?

AndyWRX 17-05-2011 06:30 PM

Looks good mate, you can get some really nice wet looking paint with black, if you ever fancy a machine you could allways get a da polisher, its allmost impossible to burn through the paint unless you stand there for about half an hour and dont move it from 1 spot. I use the g220 and hasnt let me down yet :-)

So what wax was it fella?

simba 17-05-2011 06:32 PM

Like we said on Saturday, not a great marketing session that one!
