Recommended Posts

Upon close inspection my car had a few swirl marks and minute scratches so thought i would treat her to some TLC .

Took me a couple of hours to clay bar the whole car and it really did take some of the engrained dirt away from the paintwork it wasn't that bad before just a bit gritty in places.After the claying the paint surface felt incredibly smooth i was impressed seeing as i'd never done this to a car before.

Then set about polishing the car using Sonax black car polish and i can honestly say for the money (£10) its well worth it.

Anyway thought i'd post up a few pics of my handy work.

Nice result there :) Black cars do look good when they're clean, it's just a never ending job keeping them that way.

Nice result there :thumbsup:

I clay bar the car twice a year to get rid of all the road crud that sticks to it. Always amazed afterwards how much came off & how smooth (like glass) the paint feels.

Some very good results there.

My car has lots of marks on it because of the last owner who used a 'filler pen' to go over scratches. Looks a right *&^/$#@.

All I can do is sand em down with wet n dry sandpaper and then buff the swirls out. Going to be hard work but Ill get on with it on my day off if its dry outside.
