That car is lovely Jimmy!! Its one of those dark colours which shows any slight swirls, but I can do it nicely - I did Nick Caro's Black VX and that came out amazing, so I'll use the same Sonus polishes to deswirl, and I may try R222 to wax it as it'll deepen the metallic nicely, then I might put a second layer of wax, Collinite, as its hard as nails and will seal in the deep finish through the winter.

Ironically, its these and VX's which take the longest, as due to them being fibreglass the finishes are softer, so I need to be careful, I use very mild polishes and work them longer at low speeds.

The quickest car I have done is the biggest! A Picasso, but thats because it is all windows! ha ha.

Don't use my own car for reference, im ashamed to say the paint is hanging! It is desperate need of a detail, and I intend to do it before new year. not sure which new year
