Took this after I spent 2 hours waxing it. How do some of you put 2 coats on?? Its worth it though, when you wash it after that, the dirt just hoses right off. Feel free to post up your polished car pics.

2 hours waxing, that wasn't very long, you did a great job in that time.

Sunglasses please

Niiiiice...

That car must turn so many heads - It should therefore be kept spotless!

If I had a car like that I wouldn't be able to do it justice - I haven't cleaned the MR2 for three months.

Cheers guys, thanks for the comments. I used the Williams F1 Carnuba wax. In retrospect it probably too a bit longer. The wheels are BBS Super RS, I like them but perhaps a more simple design would be nicer, i just love the polished outer part though.

Thats a lovely RX7.

I've just meshed my bumper this weekend....long, tiring, sore........but worth it.

It's just autoglym Super resin polish for me, I have a bottle of extra gloss protection but haven't used that yet.
