Porter Cable with Meguires pads - fantastic investment :)

DG's dog 'Dudley' once ran up to my Elise and then ran both paws with claws out down the door... He was just saying 'hello'! DG didn't know where to look!!!

But a quick polish with the PC had it back to perfection! :)

as essential as ratchet spanners!!!

Dudley was pushing his status in the family that day and thank god, Simon is so understanding and a bit flash with car detailing ;-) he has some serious ocd and never seen so many cloths used in cleaning a car - love it :-D

Sounds like a cracking idea!

Simon is the man who removed my headlight just so he could get a spec of overspray off my venture shield after a small repair to the front clam, perfectionist is our MrSimba. :thumbsup:

Wouldn't mind a detailing day. I've used a PC once before on the Z4, but that had big areas of paint work. The VX has much smaller, difficult areas and I think it'll be much harder to do.
