By coincidence I started planning my Spring clean last weekend, fresh stock of polishes, cloths etc. However, decided the faded Union Flag on boot needs replacing before I start, so ordered one today. It should be here by Thursday, after which, no excuse to delay the Spring clean any longer.
Only wish I could achieve the results you have!

Default Start of My Annual Spring Clean

Lovely job Cliff, I did mine last week. Used a Chicago Pneumatic Rotary with 3M compounds & Duragloss 105 for protection.

You're too modest Ronnie, your car always looks fabulous

Braver than me! I use a Dual Action just to be on the safe side. It gives good results, but takes a lot longer than a Rotary. Looking at your pics though, I would say your Rotary is in safe hands, your results are stunning.

Cheers Stu - high praise coming from you. Your collection is amazing, and all kept to the highest standard.
