            Dave, I actually think he didn't give it enough attention but then I'm biased.

            I've just finished a 23 hour detail! (not on my DS3 that's fine with a one day job normally!)...

            Regards,
            Clive.

                    Clive what machine would you suggest geting for the kind of finish in that vid and what products? I have Autoglym HD way and cleaner along with AG super resin and UDS.

                    Just been looking at autobrites machine polish kits but not sure which to get? Kestrel DAS-6 PRO?

                      Lots of demo vehicles on offer I'm afraid Jon! However the effort is more than worth it in my view.

                      Hi Germinus, the Kestrel DAS-6 Pro kits are good - however getting 'that kind of finish' also comes down to technique etc, the kit whilst important doesn't magic that result. I'd recommend a kit like the Kestrel one and then see if you can get some practice / training. Understanding the correct tecniques and applications makes all the difference.

                      Regards,
                      Clive.

                            It's a massive subject mate....

                            I'd rather train someone than try to write it all down! Dave is a master at it, I was taught by him originally, I drove 350 miles each way to learn from that young man!

                            Regards,
                            Clive.
