Nice. Some shine.
Fancy doing another red car?
Cheers guys, if you were not so far away i would
Tried SMART Sealent today, and very impressed by it, gives a less glossy finish but a really smooth look, worth giving a go.
Rob
i like it, i had the choice of red, there and then, or wait for a white, and i went for the white, not sure if i regret it know.
does look very shiny there, think i will attack mine with my meguirs, and see if it comes up as good as yours has

Hi Smilley, sure it will matey and white is a great colour. You probably wont get so much 'bling' but it will look ultra clean. Claying is the key step in the process.
I almost went for white as really shows off the lines well but the g/f wasnt too keen.
Good luck with it and post some pics.

it has actually come up quite well, going to hopefully get soem pics later.
but it took forever, white polish and wax on a whtie car, takes forever to find the bits you missed when buffing, my neighbour keeps coming over to say he's found some more, doh

Stunning looking car there fella.
Blackfire is great stuff to use. Did you apply a wax to her at all or after the polish stage add the Gloss Spray?

Thanks mate.
No i didnt use the Blackfire wax, just the Gloss Enhancing Polish and the All Weather Sealant. They are both really easy to use. I applied by hand but i know that youu can apply by machine as well.
There is a Blackfire site in the US that is worth a look. I havent tried the Gloss Spray, have you tried it?

Hey Rob,
Blackfire is very good to use. Mine isn't a SEAT of course but I'm going to try it on my sisters LCR and my other sisters Ibiza Sport DAB soon. As JAP/Subaru paint isn't the best so the SEAT paint will be interesting after a go of Blackfire.
Heres the Blackfire items I use.
Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish
Blackfire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection
Blackfire Midnight Sun Ivory Carnauba Paste Wax
Blackfire Deep Gloss Spray Sealant
I spray the latter over the wax (I leave it for 12hrs) so it gives it that nice shine to the paint.

Hey Gimp
yes these are the 2 i use
Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish
Blackfire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection
I might get myself the Midnight sun and am intrigued by the Gloss Spray as well.
Is that a black scooby you have there? That will look cracking with the BF as well. I saw one last week and had a real strong gold flake.
cheers Rob

Hi Rob,
Sorry for the late reply mate.
The wax is a wizz to use. Goes on easy and to wipe off is the same. The sealant is a great thing to have. You can wash your car ,dry and just spray some on. This is to top it up etc during waxing.
Yes bud thats my car. It's Black with Blue mica flek. The BF items work wonders on the paint. I used to use Swissvax but it didn't really show the Blue flek in the paint too well. The best thing about the BF items is you can get different looks from the paint on my car. One day it will look wet and glossy and other days your see the blue in the paint mixed with the wet look.
Cheers
