Cool

Not in person this time, but I've spent five hours with my baby, applying Mark's brilliant products.

She didn't even look this good when I bought her

Look at those reflections

And the paintwork now feels smooth as the proverbial ...

Wow!


I hope to get some of the WW stuff soon. I wonder what product would remove some of the small scratches within the paintwork, these seam to appear almost daily and a clay block had no effect.

A clay is used to remove all the crap from the paint. It is NOT designed as a swirl remover. To remove the swirls and minor scratches you need to use cleanse.

Scooby paint about the worst I know as it is around half the thickness of european paints and so very soft.

Give me a bell and I am sure I can solve your problem. Mark

Andrew...she look awesome. Glad everything turned out ok. Thanks for the feedback..much appreciated. Mark

Andrew,

Your car looks great - good day for cleaning, down South anyway. Just a quick question, which of Marks WW products did you use? Any hints/tips - mine should be delivered today sometime.

Cheers,

Tony C.

Alasdair,

Smartass I was wondering how long it would take someone to mention the traffic cone It wasn't until I was taking the photos off the camera onto the PC that I noticed it was in frame.

Tony,

WW Car wash, followed by the clay bar, the cleanser, and then the wax.

All up, it took me about five hours.

My only tip is to take it easy with the clay bar. I got a little bit carried away and didn't noticed a little piece of stone that got caught in it. Result ... A dozen or so six inch long scratches in my passenger side door. Not a major bother, its only in the clear coat and I can probably T-cut it out, but it would have been better if I hadn't done it in the first place

It is a lot of work, but its worth it in the end.

Scoobynutter,

Bought the stuff directly from the man himself, Mark Underwood. His email address is u_mark@hotmail.com (hope that's OK Mark, let me know if you want it removed).

Or check out the website

Hi Mark,

I managed to mark my spoiler as I must have picked up a stone on the clay bar. Whats the best option now to get rid of these marks.

Andrew your car looks almost as clean as mine!
