THE BEST SHINE

Aug 22, 2005 29 Replies

I have a 1999 Vauxhall Vectra metallic finish. I would like to obtain a high gloss on it. I have seen some similar model cars and it looks as though they were driven out of the show room. Please advise on the best polish to use and possibly some advice on how best to obtain those amazing results.


Farecla G10 and a proper polisher, then lots of elbow grease with G10, and then glaze, and then wax.

Why don't you keep the f*ck out of this if you do not have enough language to say anything useful ?

Oh piss off you humourless bastard.

I'm not the one worrying about polishing a 6yo Vectra, ffs.

It's called humour. Get used to it, when driving a Vectra.

The message from Paul Giverin contains these words:

Will it help me get cake and coffee mixture off my monitor?

But even with your car is polished, it's a shame that Vauxhall have misspelled the word 'Vector'.

When I was in the ATC we told one lad that the best way to get a good shine on your boots was to use one of those suede cleaning wire brushes. Silly sod believed us too.

The message from "Malc" contains these words:

I told a bloke off for using a pair of fine wire cutting snips to cut his nose hair. He grumbled about haing to use something so I told him to hold a lighted match under his nostrils.

Next morning he came in mouth-breating with an elastoplast over his septum.

go back to your perverse little world...

Sure, just apply in the normal way, small circular motions
