cheers fella.its all in the prep mate,i machined polished mine over a year ago,and then sealed it using the jeffs system,i wont use anything else now..using it daily means i pick up light marks here and there thru washing,but a quick once overwith the jeffs prime or poorboys soon get that sorted.

also its only available at polished bliss.

i think you lying. no way that is used daily.

mines lucky if it does 1k a year, and its not that clean.

how should i do mine?

1.wash and dry.
2. clay
3. polish ? (super resin polish?)
4. wax (zymol?)

does that sound about right?

Hello mate,yes the wash procedure sounds spot on,SRP is a good all in one,slightly abrassive and has fillers so will get rid of a few wash marks if used bu hand,if you have a da the results would be better.

for a bit more wetness u could add a coat of glaze,poorboys blackhole/white diamond.once you have sealed your paintwork with wax or sealent you cn top up the glaze(not having to go thru the whole procedure again)it will fill light swirls and wash marring.

on mine i use the wekstatt kit,been using it well over a year now and dont use owt else(peace of piss 2use) being a spray sealent you can top up after every wash.

i machined polished mine a while back now using menzerna polishes,applyd the werkstatt prime and sealed with the jett..now every wash thats all i do,few layers of jett,wipedown with gloss job done.

on moonstone i personally think sealents work better the only wax i rated was the p21s

hope that helps.
