My paint work seams to of suffered the dreaded swirls and seams to have some light surface scratches. Does anyone know where I can these professionally removed in the Birmingham area?

Or does anyone know how I can DIY remove then?

Not so much from me but from the previous owner

I have just got some Turtle Wax, Safe Cut Scratch remover (Safely removes light scratches and swirl marks.

Have not used it yet, there is a very good post about swirl marks and how to wash your car without causing any more.

Cheers:lol:

I have read the thread on how to remove the swirls etc. Last time I used a polisher it was a disaster. I wouldn't mind getting it done professionaly.

Will let you know how it turns out

I had Emps do mine last May,although I actually thought it looked good already, it looked a million dollars afterwards.

Cheers for the heads up. I didn't realise it was that long ago now!

Picked up car after it had been to be polished. Looking really nice. Lovely shine.

Apparently he uses a wax containing palm oil.

Really pleased with the result.
