Now for the interesting part....

As you can see from these pics, the car had loads of swirls - just a combination of soft Honda paint and bad washing techniques.....





Boot lid taped up for 50/50



I used my CYC Das6 Pro machine, time was short as i only had a couple of hours and being Honda paint i'm told it's pretty soft so i didn't want to go all out and decided to give Autoglym SRP a go, and see how it works compared to the Menz range which is all i'd used up until now. I have used SRP before but never by machine so i was keen to see how it worked.

I used a Sonus SFX-3 Pad (both 6" and 4" for different areas) but i'm really pleased with how it worked for just SRP





Moved on to rear quarter, 50/50





Completed the passenger side, really impressed by SRP - The first time i've managed to get 50/50 shots, but it was obvious it was making a decent attempt of hiding some and getting rid of other swirls and scratches.



Nice reflection i thought



As time was short, i went for a nice easy to apply LSP in Dodo Rainforest Rub



Wax left to cure for around 25 mins


Starting to buff off.... it was leaving a nice shine




I polished the Exhaust up with Autosol Metal Polish
