Got a new car about a month ago, due to being busy with work and uni work plus exams. It has taken a backseat when it comes to cleaning it, iv kept the interior clean, and cleaned the interior a week ago.
But now i need to do the outside, so basically its red what the best products, and no its not fading at all but there are swerl marks. But intend to get it detailed in the future to get rid of the swerl marks, but whats the best products to use.
On my corsa i used auto glym car shampoo, with two bucket method, then back to black'd it then super resin polish the rest.
So for my new car what would you suggest i use to make it as RED as possible a nice deep shine.
Cheers.

Will u be doing it by hand or with a machine polisher??
If by hand then the best stuff for removing swirl marks is without doubt Autoglym SRP.
If you want a deep shine i recomend the Megs Deep Chrystal Polish and then the Carnauba Wax.

Don't want to sound like a prick here, but am getting a bit fed up answering exactly the same question on a weekly basis!
I know non preem's don't have search facility, but either spend a bit of time looking through older posts, or become preem and search!!

I answered to make a point - it's not as if each post is asking for advice on different colours, it's always red!

if your not prem, you cant spend time going through old post, you get 4-5 pages, also no search, so it's pretty hard. If this site wants to not have the same crap posted always, make the search availble to everyone.

My mate washes it with the Jet wash and puts Autoglym gloss protection on it (something or other) and it gleams
