    Talking autobright tuition day...my pic's and review

    what a fantastic day i had....learned a great deal about cutting compounds/polishes/sealant's and glazes, Andy's instruction's of how to use the rotary polisher were great and although i felt really uncomfortable using it for the first time, after a few encouraging word's from both Andy and Mark and also trying Lump's technique and a different pad and cutting compound it felt quite natural and dare i say much more easy........my work car's bonnet in Andy's word's was Fell Wucked but came up a treat with the help of Andy-Mark / Myself / caterman / AndyW / phatty and Pricey....and then we had a blast on the driver's wing using a less course compound and a smaller head, i found this easier to use than the first one even though it didn't give such a good finish as the other one i was well chuffed with the result's gained

    process was claying - cutting compound - finishing paste - glaze - sealant & then the wax....( the expensive one )

    whilst we were doing the wing on my car Andy started a few people on an old panel to have a go with and also set about a wet sanding demo that took a few folk by surprise to say the least...

    a big thank's to both Andy and Mark and heres to having a play with my new kit...

    Great Pics. Rich and yep that sums up the day really well.

    Your motor is now wearing the most expensive wax in the club. You should do a weekly review for us mere mortals.
