Yeh, I have been known to spend all day on mine too...I get the odd word or two from the neighbours "you'll soon have nothing to polish Tim if you keep cleaning it" lol...or "are you cleaning it again? I only saw you clean it last weekend" ....huh! like I'm that anal...
a lil bit of topic, but have you tried pro polishes like 3M, not the ones for nonpros like Turtle Wax, Meguirs, Sonax...
if you make some money from detailing cars, you should try it:ihih: but i warn you, this can cause damage if its used improperly...

I've heard of it, but never used it or known anyone that has. Obviously you get good results but I would possibly say there may be a problem with it burning through the top layer of paint if using a mop without enough water???
I've just re-read this post...sounds like I'm some kiddy fiddler...well, I mean to say I've got a couple of 12 year old malts..lol
well, its a products for pros who know what and how they are doing.
They use it in car body repair services after paintwork and so on... results are truly amazing... but using it too much, cut through the paint layers and lead to deep bare metal shine
anyway there are few polishes, which are like liquid sandpaper, you use them step by step with polishing machine. i must say it again, results are truly amazing:yikes:

Just been having a look at 3M's website - quite interesting, especially their vehicle wrapping.

We'll done Tim, fabulous results.
I shall ashamed to have yours by mine at the meet now - I think I will park well away from you at the Bath meet!!!!!!!!! lol
More of a reason to get yours nice and shiney then Viv lol
Yes it does matey, if its never been clay barred before you'll be amazed at what comes off, and how smooth your car feels.
Even though I keep my Coug really clean and had washed it prior to Clay barring - I was amazed at the amount of cr*p that came off it, just shows how easy it would be to scratch the paint work if you left all that rubbish on it. I will be doing mine again in another month as want to keep her looking good and really want the paint work to look better than it does now...
