Even though it looks like my gearbox has gone south- I thought I would give the girl some love...

She comes up alright! Could deffo do with a machine polish but Black is the worst colour for showing up marks!

Not as yet, only had it two week so far. There isn't a huge amount of tar spots but it's surprising the amount clay pulls off. I'll go with a soft one first to see how much it grabs before I go to harsh. Only used one coat of SRP on it for the time being to put something on the paint. I'm off for a week soon and then I'm going to do it properly!
