    I have tried their compounds and if I am honest there a better ones out on the market. The only thing I use CG for now is their accessories and some sealants, glazes and wax.

    ok the chips , i cant help with , ( you could touch them up first , so they will look better ) . im taking it that your doing this by hand , if just using the poorboys this what id do/use . give the car a claying ( i say more important than the wax/polish ) once clyed then use black hole ( this will take some swirls out and cover the deeper ones , after id give it a coat off the poorboys sealant , this will see good results all by hand . you will get all from here . http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Poorboys-B...item20c8a80c4c


    i use this clay as you only need water as a lube ,http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bilt-Hambe...item19d597afbe

    anything else i can help just ask .

    I like them too mate, also using the menz range still. If It needs serious cutting then ill use 3M fast cut as that really does the business.
