Hiya Steve, how long have you got ? Firstly, combination flap wheels where they'll fit, otherwise, and after the wheels, 80 grit wet & dry, used dry on a series of different sized blocks, then 150 grade, then 240, 400, 600, then800 and1200 used wet with light oil, after that I go to the polishing wheel, first, brown cutting wax, then green polishing wax then lastly blue colouring polish, sadlythere areno short cuts, patience and experience - mostly patience - I agree completely with Dave, I do need to get a life, but it's VERY satisfying watching it come up under the last wheel ! Martin.

Hello Ian,

I wish I know what you are talking about.... I had always thought those films com from "beyond the big pond". Not that I knew from my own observations!

Kind regards, Dieter.
