Thanks Loach. i really appreciate your input. I'm going to have fun doing this :xyxthumbs:

I'd like to say a big thankyou for everyone sharing their knowledge and experience. lots of great tips and thankyou mike for showing me those guides for taping. how possible is it that you can get the desired finish when finishing with a rotary?

Hey tato I appreciate what you have said 100% I've literally only been into detailing about 4 weeks. Prior to that I'd just walk outside with my bucket of 99p wash and wax and 50p sponge and start scrubbing away at all the grit. And no way would I have had a shot like that before. Your post was...
