I get my car washed by local polish lads down the road for £5 every once a month..

They seem to love my car the most

and tell me they have seen similar car like this in Poland. I was trying to explain them that this is a Type-S and Poland doesn't get a S but they didn't understand.

Paint measuring...

Iv wet sanded no end of customers cars and never broke through. If its German i can sand forever. If its Jap ill break through soon. Anything else is inbetween.

I use Pinnacle Crystal Mist (not on the windows) each time and it's the lazy man's guide to looking like you've given it the full works each time. Sort of the same deal, really. Tops up the carnuaba and the garage queens never need waxing!

That's all very well, 'til you forget where the areas are you ground out deeper scratches & go over them again. Like I did on me rear bumper...

Ratty have you never used a depth measurer? Only reason for having one is because on my sisters car I cut through and had to pay for a reapray on the whole drivers side.
