Lovely mota and brilliant shine, i think it's the best stuff by far.
You may want to remove your reg no as don't forget this is a public BBS.

Very nice car mate! Wish I had the time to polish mine that well...

And as for number plates on the BBS - err why is this a problem?? After all, everyone sees them when you drive around.

Thanks for the comments guys. Not to bothered about my reg number being seen though. The spoiler i have is the Prodrive Wr one with the logo on the side i have sprayed it silver so that it stands out. I would love some STI rear lights but can't justify the cash for them.

Cheers James.

Top job.

I've just got the Swissol starter kit and used it for the 1st time a couple of weeks ago. Did the full wash car, clay car, clean paint and then wax car and was pretty pleased. Almost 9hrs of cleaning.

I've got the same colour as your Sccob, but did not manage to get the shine anywhere near as good as yours What's the secret?

As you may have a bit more knowledge of this stuff (judging by the shine) can you wash a swissol'd car, dry it and then apply another coat of wax?

ajax- put bluntly- coz autoglym is **** in comparison.. you must be a god with it..

if cost is a worrying issue- try meguiars.. you'll never go back I promise ya!.
I always thought AG was the dogs.. until I ran out and went for the leftfield option (meguiars) and recently also tried zymol..

Scoobyfella..great looking car mate.. do you have some kind of modded front splitter/bumper going on there? or have I had too much coffee today?

I have to agree with Chrome, AG is SH1TE compared to Swissol. It lasts longer, the shine is better and lasts longer and is soooo much easier to use.

It's not polish, it's a wax so you get no dust as you polish it off and no streaks. I always used AG previously but wouldn't again as it just doesn't last as long and is not as easy to use.
Here's mine after the swizzol treatment

Edited to put pic back on
