Exhaust

Spent some time over the weekend doing a little compounding and polishing on the rear deck and boot lid and fitting the rear cherry bombs to the exhaust. The polishing was in preparation for fitting the roll bars for the last time. After all the experimenting I've done with different compounds, polishes and pads my final weapons of choice are:

• 2000 grit wet and dry by hand
• Farecla G3 liquid on an Farecla Advanced G-Mop compounding foam by rotary polisher
• 3M Ultrafina SE on a 3M perfect-it 3 high gloss polishing pad by rotary polisher

I'm getting pretty confident with the polishing now so will probably press ahead and get it looking respectable and on the road and worry about some of the fine detail later otherwise I could spend forever getting it all perfect. It's all going to get scratched and chipped once it's on the road anyway.

Starting to come together now ... !
