The car was then rinsed down again to remove residue and water sheeted over the surface again and dried using ultra plush poorboys drying towels.
The car was then machine polished using a 3M yellow polishing pad and Megs #205, this gave the desired fininsh and produced the level of enhancement that was needed.
Polish residue was removed using deep pile Eurow towels.
