About 35 cars coming


The Autoglym Paint renovator is Highly abrasive and is really only suitable for cars that have been very neglected. For the White from the pics i would got with the Megs 3step route. I have a couple of bottles i can decant out enough for you to do your car and Also a bottle of something called Poor boys White Diamond which is a show glaze for white cars. really will make yours stand out.

I made the switch from autoglm to megauiresa a long long time ago as i found that auto started becoming very hard to remove when waxing etc...

i do have the 3 step system at home i was just going to use the autoglm to see if it had got better....
ill stick using me meg's then ill do the 3 step i gave it a meguires clay bar yesterday too

cheers

no problems Do the 1st two stages Paint clean and Polish but dont wax untill i have given you the show glaze.
