Help with poorly maintained car by previous owner
stealthwolf:
I think I used two large and two small MF pads when doing my car. Only used the compound rather than the finishing polish. Used lime prime for that.
cuprajake:
Is your car anything like this ??
had a lovely passat cc turn up for polishing, not th best condition and to top it off it was black,
car got washed and soaked with autoglym tfr, wheels had atoglym wheel acid,
then brought in and dried to reveal the horrors,.
car looks like its been hit with a brilo pad, along with bird poo staining too
here are a few pics,

started the polish, using 3m fc+ on an indasa hard pad, followed by 3m yellow fine polish, on yellow pad, this was topped off with 3m ultrafina then finally waxed with autoglym hd wax, tyres were done in autoglym tire shine and all plastics were dressed with autoglym rubber and trim dressing, windows done with autoglym fastglass
heres a 50/50 pic
