Re: A step by step guide to cleaning/polishing my Mig Reply #19 - 09. Feb 2010 at 00:37 Spot on matey & nice to see you've done the glass in & out. So many miss this. The claybar is good if the car has'nt been done for a while. I machine polish which needs a handwax after to seal but machine polish only needs doing 2 or 3 times a year. She's a credit to you.

Top job

...but why with the weather as it is just now ? Undecided

The car had little or no wax and I thought it was a good idea to get some on to protect against the weather. Also, I quit drinking at Christmas as I need to lose a few pounds and get a bit fitter; as I result I'm bored to death on the weekends even with the kids to keep happy and the wife to look after Wink

Thanks, my next job, after purchasing a pressure washer and foam lance will be to buy a rotary polisher. I'd appreciate advice on polishing as I don't want to ruin the car and I can't afford a £200 paint depth gauge Embarrassed
