What was your pad/polish combo?

Could be just a hand polish as no light source to see if swirls are lurking...
Great reflections though. :happy2:

Erm no. You don't need a light source unless you're doing paint correction. Most swirls are light and can be removed with a single pass with a finishing pad and polish.

Thanks for the welcomes! I have had it out in the sun and was chuffed with my first go that all swirls have gone :surprised:, was a bit late taking the photos, sun had gone. Doesn't like to stay out long in Scotland! My T-Shirt does look like a bloody dress in them photos :signLOL: . Used menz polishing pad and a finishing pad. Ultimate polish on the polishing pad and final finish on the finishing pad. My first go at using my new DAS 6 Pro. Toped up with 2 coats of colante 476 (amazing stuff!). Was going to clean the bike today but going to use it instead. Good week for holidays, actualy some sun!
Thanks
Kevin

I love menzerna polishes - when worked correctly, they give an awesome finish. Did you use a glaze or paint cleanser after the polish and before the wax? If not, try something lime prime lite.
