Great work Warren and your Fabia is looking so much better on those TT Comps, a timeless classic wheel there and looks like a great finish on them as well?

How did you find the machining on the paintwork then? Good going? Also did you find it easy enough to get the sanding marks out of the paintwork and headlamps?

Yeah the wheels look good. They were in need of a little attention when I purchased them but a little TLC and they are looking mint!

For my first proper correction attempt I think it went well. Obviously the more I do the better/more confidence I will get.

I found removing the sanding marks quite easy to be fair. Looking forward to receiving my PTG

From what I can see the sanding marks came out pretty good so fair play on that one............

I have just dropped you a PM with reference to the PTG as it seems to have gone quite on that GB.............

Top marks Warren !

The car looks awesome

Very nice job. The wheels look great

thats impressive!

Is that a harsh product you put onto the headlamps, does it fill in the haze or something?

very nice though, love the wheels

The lights were wet sanded , polished with a compound and finally refined with a finishing polish.

Thanks for the comment

i thought i'd done my research and now i find out there's wet sanding, what is it? what products are these?

I presume wet sanding refers to the use of wet and dry paper in conjunction with water There are numerous different grades ranging from extremely fine to extremely coarse.
