Just been speaking with Tim on the phone again as no delivery has turned up but this time it isnt his fault its DPD! As Tim promised yesterday the polisher will leave them for sure. Last night i got a email confiming it had left them with a tracking number. But this time DPD have cocked up and after talking to the main place the parcel is stuff in Birmingham. Looks like ill be doing the rest by hand today then :(

Not overly impressed but Tim cant say sorry anymore to me so i cant blame him for all of this. Also had a good chat on the phone about other products that i will be ordering soon once i have the machine first.
 
DPD are £%&"£% useless tbh, we use them to collect our laptops and so much goes missimg, doesnt turn up on time, gets to people wet / damaged. we are getting rid of them soon.
 
Well it was set up for a saturday delivery that hasnt happen. Thank god we use citylink at work.
 
DPD are good and bad, they're run in regions I'm told. If I know DPD or the home delivery network are the only options... i usually look elsewhere as round here both are terrible. Shame they've let ya down :(
 
Exciting isnt it. Ivegot loads of bits on their way to me in prep for a white car (my excuse...)
 
Exciting aint the word i ordered it wednesday :lol: the pain for waiting so long
 
Im looking at getting a Machine Polish but wont be for a while yet. its for older cars with alot of swirls in the paint work we are talking 11 year old cars etc

problem is ive never used one before and wont want to scratch the thing to bits. maybe ask for a scrap bonnet for practise

would that be helpful to try out with first? see how it turns out? also anyone know the dark version of that stuff?
 
Ok Cheers Karl

Have a read of this guide for Dual Action use>> https://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=63859

AutoBlam is another all in one product that can hide a lot of damage, with cleaners and fillers that still give an excellent finish. Not the easiest to use, but certainly a good one to try as it gives a good amount of protection too
 
fell asleep last night but heres the pictures i promised :)
