Default It's all Nice and Shiney - Cheers Matt

It's been approx 4-5 years since the van was last waxed, and so it was beginning to look a bit tired. (Mer - lasts for ever!)

So today Matt has rejuvenated it

Before



After




Cheers Matt, lovely job.
Just hope this Collinite 915 stuff lasts as well as the Mer!

i found it ok even in the sun. i was polishing a panel, wiping residue off, apply wax, polish next panel, wipe off residue, apply wax then take wax off first pannel. There were a few tougher spots but nothing bad. not sure i want to put it all over the van and then try and take it off though. most i'd do is half the van at once.

No probs fella like i said last night it'd come up well if it was wetsanded and then polished back up but for what you're planning on using it for it'd be a bit of overkill tbh. That sort of thing is ideal for when you come to sell it to buy the bug eye prodrive
