Finally.........
some of you may recall the "men staring at a bonnet" posting some time back, well, put the practice to good use couple of weeks back and attacked the 8 armed with a box of Bilt Hamber Clay, three bottles of Megs, (Cleaner, Polish and Wax) and the all important DA Machine Polisher that three of us bought between us. Lot of hard work but the results I think are very good.
Had to keep the sun off  pretty obvious paint swirls before After most paint swirls gone This I think is the most impressive pic, this is actually a pic of the 8's door with the reflection of my sons car in it Not as I thought when I saw it a pic of my sons car (All pics courtesy of Connor) ETA couldnt have done it without the superb training from fellow forum member 47p2, so big thanks to him

That wasn't too bad then Brian, did you find the orbital any easier to use compared to my rotary?
EDIT You do realise this is the start of OCD, have a look at this link, I'm sure it will help
