Yes, there was so much crud on Badman's Z3M, I had to use a wire brush before I could even think about washing it, never mind polishing it!!!

Re: machine polishing day out
mike had a few scratches to remove on his bonnet.
these were inflicted by those drying blades so beware.
Only use drying towels not blades or shammy's!
products used:
das 6 pro da
hexlogic orange pad, medium to heavy cut.
scholl s17 compound.
the scholl compound is very good and can be worked for longer without drying out.
ive found the meguires compounds not as good

Re: machine polishing day out
Mark originally offered his help a while ago, Liam, he was at a loose end today with Michelle at work, so rang yesterday to come over with his help and advice, besides you and Caroline, or any other members for that matter, don't need an invite, just ring first to see if we are in before you start out!!! Always open house at our abode!!!Z3cade wrote:And where was my invite?...
Took some good pics of the tea breaks!!!
Thanks Badman for your help & advice in trying to eliminate Monty's stubborn blemishes, it was good just to see you and Rocket Man!
Some pics to show that we were actually working, not just polishing off the Fish & Chips
Badman's Bag, Man
Badman polished the Rover specially for this occasion!!
Is it an optical illusion? Is Badman's rear window bigger than ours??
Rocket Man waiting for the next pair of passing trouser legs!
Mad Man Mike & Badman Gee admiring the new roof just before the opening ceremony!
A trio of Zeds
Mora in the wings.
Yet another cuppa!!
Monty's war wounds are not quite so deep now!!! Thanks Badman!
It was such a lovely day, shame we weren't out on the open road with the top down! but job well done!

Re: machine polishing day out
What about taking your gear to Silverstone and do a workshop for those interested, if we all pay a contribution it could cover the cost of the products you use. Pretty sure we could wangle some mains power for you from somewhere if we asked soon enough.Badman gee wrote:i have no detailer its done myself normally.Southernboy wrote:What does your detailer charge you for the service?
