"Shine" aka taketheweekendoff said it'd be £75 to do. Recently had a scratch repair done by these on the wifes' Mini and was impressed.

Ive used a DAS6 polisher and they are quite effective and easy to use there are loads of guides out there and as long as you take your time the results are superb. I am just an enthusiast and I thought the results i ended up with were great.

For £100 you can get setup with everything you need.....other than the time it takes. 1 full day flat out is about right!

here's what I went for:
- Megs G220 polisher
- Meguiars 7" cutting, polishing and finishing pads
- triple sample set of menzerna polishes all at different cuts - 2/10, 4/10 and 6/10 cutting abilities I think
- don't forget IPA. This is isopropyl alcohol. buy a solution, not the aerosol version. Mix 50/50 with water and use this to wipedown the car. Removes all polish residue.
- 3" backing plate and a set of cutting, polishing and finishing pads that were 4" in size (this is for small areas like the boot lip)
