Kestrel DA1 - cleanyourcar.co.uk's one

Great polisher at a great price. Got some brilliant results on my old car with it

Plan to do the ED30 some point later in the summer when I get a chance

No spacers and no drop if afraid pete :P

Just little changes here and there

@John. Menzerna power finish and then final finish

I hate to say a drop and rear spacers of some calibre would look exceptionally good on yours  :party:
I'm guilty of not dropping mine enough, which is perhaps worse than not doing so at all  :grin:

Had you machine polished previous to the picture above with Steve's? Looks excellent.

You could never tell from the pics Steve to be fair  :smiley:
I always feel like everyone else takes pics seconds after a MP detail and I'm the only one to snap when the GTI's covered in sh*t!  :grin:

Aye maybe maybe. Ill think about it  :P

 :wink: I'm sure they'll appear on your list somewhere....  :evilgrin:

The photos so far are wood material.
You can't preview that much and delay us any longer.....  :popcornsoda:
