I would like to thank the guys at finerdetails for spend about an hour talking to me and a mate at UD Show this weekend about what products to used and how to use a PC the right way , as if it done wrong it can look very bad , if you need any advice recommend these guys ,as they are so friendly and willing to show you what you are doing wrong

Cheers Kenny

Yes i saw the demo on the S8 at 1pm on Sunday , it good . there was great example of a car , which the owner of it ,who didn't know what he was doing with a PC and never broke down the polish correctly and left the paintwork in a mess . If i get stuck the next time i am clean the man , i will give Iain a quick phone for some advice

cheers Kenny

I wish I could have made the show. Watching Iain is great - he doesn't even look like he is concentrating half the time, it looks so easy. I have to concentrate with my rotary so much the world could end around me and I wouldn't notice!

Myself and Iain were a bit too busy to see the show properly (S8's are WAYYYY too big) but what we did manage to see between demo's was great.
Nice to meet a few of you and hopefully pass on some helpfull tips.
Smaller car next year though Iain! ;)

Set out from home around 8am, arriving at the Telford International Centre at 10am. Following a quick wash of the van, and dry, I was taken inside and introduced to the car I was going to be using on the day for demonstrations.

Ok, with the day ahead to try to sort most of the car i took the decision to complete the car to wax level everywhere except down the off side panels, here I was going to leave every panel as a half and half panel and use them to demo the de-swirl, finishing polish, glaze and finally wax.

Here the on going preparation work on Saturday with my assistant for the weekend too:
