Don't try polishinging chrome wheels with a dremel.., took me all day to do one and it still needed more work lol.  And I ran out of polishing heads (u need 'em by the dozen)

aye my windscreen was scratched to s**t i went to autoglass who pretended it was cracked and replaced it on the insurance!

aye i dont posses a polishing machine but i used brasso on my lights came up fairly good but there is a haze mark in the one that i reckon polishing would get shift of!

Hey Tom did they do a good job coz mine's got a big chip in the middle and not sure if it's gonna pass mot next month? :-/

also take it u don't loose no claims or out on insurance for windscreen?

hmmmm........so an electric polisher and a bit of g3 huh?  - can you do the windscreen like that too?? cos mine is sh**ty......loads of wee pitted marks like tiny 'stone chips', as if it needs a good polishing to make it clearer.

wouldnt want to do glass matey ! get a new one one £60 on insurance  

on though surfaces like windscreen you need to work for many days..

for that reason 2000 grid or even 1500 grid is required to do the job

quickly..of which you can use also on headlamps

I've done the brasso route - add a bit of elbow grease and a drastic improvement.  To do it properly, then fine wet n dry plus polish as mine aren't sparkling - just many times better than they were.  At least i can see at night now..

One good thing - i managed to reduce my "odd sock" drawer by 2... [smiley=laugh.gif]
