Ahoy hoy,


I bit the bullet and gave spraying a go Thanks to your guide hellbus :)

as painting comes nears and end, I want hans on the road stat! its been way too long since his last drive, Im near the buffing stage

I used K&H buff and shine on the bonnet as a test, followed by megiuars medium cut cleaner and race glaze, is this the type of shine I should expect?, Hopefully next week it will be finished!

any products recommended?, I hear 3M have good stuff

I used Farecla G3 rubbing compound followed by T-cut and then a polish on my old purple beetle. You need to make sure you rub by hand to remove any swirl marks.

so I would use a swirl remover by hand?,


I have a ryobi Variable speed buffer which I used with the buff and shine
