Good job! What blue color is she?

Nice job there Simon. And a timely reminder that I really need to be doing similar stuff to the ZT

what do you think of the Turtle Wax Colour Magic as thinking of getting some for my bonnet owing to lots of stone chips

Simondi · 7th April 2009, 20:53

It does'nt do a bad job of coveing small scratches & chips. I've got a nasty scratch on my rear bumper where some careless NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- caught me in a car park. A liberal amount of colour magic and lots of elbow grease cover it nicely.

A possibly better solution to stone chips and still not splashing out as far as a respray is Dr. Colorchip - if you do a search you'll find plenty of info.

I had a go with it at the weekend and although it isn't quite miraculous, it really is pretty magic.

Good stuff btw, SimonGodfrey - that's a beautiful colour, esp. in the last photo!
