After giving the GT a bit of attention this morning, it has become obvious that the big girl needs a real good polish.
I'm nervous about doing it myself (I have a phobia about touching black cars) and I had my last Pursuit (also black) polished by a guy who was supposed to be the ducks guts and the car looked a million bucks for about a week. Then I noticed heaps of swirls and extra polish as well as polish on some of the non-painted bits which never came good. Also, after it's polish (only one it ever had @ 100,000k's) it seemed to explode with stone chip's every day, it only had 3 or 4 before hand. For these reason's, I want to find a guy who is the best, I don't mind paying well if the results are what I'm after, any reccomendations? |

Maybe ask a panel beater/painter. They are paid to make the car look a million bucks after repairing it.... or just drive past a high school. With the amount of grease flowing off these teenagers, it should be shiny in no time.... lol!
