More RRS piccies !!

Just had to post these two photos.

I tried Gtechniq P1 polish with my DA yesterday and topped it off with that old favourite Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection this afternoon.

The P1 is awesome stuff and I'm really chuffed with the results;

@ Ady - I used a 6" orange polishing pad as the P1 seems to need quite a hard pad, otherwise you'll be at it a while. The finish is really fine, no dust and as the P1 is water based you can mist the pad too to help.

Let me know how you get on. Thumbs Up FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

That's a great finish Bradders, P1 is a superb product and as you say, being water based, makes it so much easier to deal with Thumbs Up
Need to find the time to do mine, as its a few minor swirls, despite my meticulous wash regime Sad , seems RRS paint is quite soft. ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Black looks awesome clean and polished but mine scratches so easily its unbelievable. I only DA'd it a couple of months ago but the fine swirl makes were driving me mad.

I wonder if the clear coat is particularly soft ?? FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

After 4 black LR's I avoid them like the plague now Embarassed

They seem to scratch so easy and only look clean for 10 minutes after you wash them - but they do look good clean Bow down

I am on my 3rd grey and find it superb for looking clean longest Thumbs Up Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

For a second I thought you'd posted pictures upside down until I realised what they where. That's some shine. Hugely impressive.
