Hudson Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Bloody hell..... was that with a PC or Rotary ? And which products did you use. Totally stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jediknight83 Posted June 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 that was with a rotary machine polisher at 1300rpm for the compounds and then 1800rpm to buff the various coats of wax. i used all autoglym trade products as i have been trained to do. Used well then can give amazing results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jediknight83 Posted June 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 i'd like to be more in demand i used an autoglym trade product on the wheels. along with various other chemicals which get most of the dirt out of both the wheels and tyres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpsmith Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 I work indoors all day messing with IT Kit and would love to have a job detailing cars instead! Does not matter what cars either and I realise it is not an easy job but would love it nonetheless. Is the money any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
