I find site lights to be a big bonus, they help show everything that bit clearer.

What other products did you order?

Just make sure to mask the plastics and trim up  :happy2:

I think I have the same pads but I got Menzerna polishes with mine.

You need to continually assess the paintwork to ensure you're hitting it right and step up the abrasiveness to match. Start with the lightest compound and finishing pad. If there are still swirls, step up to lightest polish + polishing pad. Then step up to to medium polish + polishing pad etc. Jay should be able to give more details or have a look on detailing world for an awesome thread on polishing.

Important things are technique and time.

Sorry I've not had mch input to this thread, Been very busy finishing at like 7.30 - 8.00 most nights!

Anyway, you should be ok with the polish and pads you already have. The important thing, like stealth and craig have said just take your time and work your way up to the strongest combo.

Make sure you have a bright light source to check progress but bear in mind halogens can hide alsorts. That's why you won't find me using them much ;)

Hope this thread helps you out :P
