I couldn't believe it :lol: I even marked our roughly where the tank was! I'm measuring and thinking I'm nowhere near it!

I don't know anything about this type of polish, thought Autoglym squirty stuff was ok, have seen these tubs from £20-£200 but never bought any, does it really make it extra shiny, and does it last longer. Read some stuff about leaving it on for a few hours, is this the same???

Took it for a run to squeak test the bulkhead. It passed :D

Then rewarded myself with a wee trip to the scrappies to see what I could find cup holder wise :D

Got some zafira rears,a lovely vectra one with a rolly lid and another mk7 flippy table :D
Also got a mk6 OE beacon switch if any one needs it?

This one was £45ish, from shinerama and came reccomened by them. It is ment to last longer and bring out the paint colour as it has a tint to it.

Took a very small amount to do, so the pot should last a while :D
