I'm blaming you lot for getting me into this. I've always liked to have a clean car, but only ever did wash, t-cut and polish up until now.

First you made me buy a polishing machine, then it was pads, clay kit and Collinite 476!

Already had the autoglym SRP

Anyway, with today being the best forecast weather day of the week thought I'd give the new DAS 6 a go on the boot (ended up doing the boot, roof and bonnet). A quick wash down of each panel, then first go at claying, that surprised me as to how many specs of dirt were stuck to it. Another wash down and a go with the DAS 6 and some autoglym, followed by some collinite.

Wasn't going too bananas with it and sure it would have come up even better if I'd spent longer on each panel but it's a start.

Thanks to all for the input on various threads that gave some good tips. Very useful when searching out information.

Nice work, but a little tip, when you have finished using the Autoglym SRP, buy some Autosmart Topaz, best polish on the market, and use your new DAS with a soft polishing pad, and you will see an amazing finish to your paintwork
