One of the best Kits about - Megs G220

Recommended Polishes for German Paints
Megs 80 and 83
Menzerna
Important - Dont forget to Clay Bar after washing, As a rule Wash , Clay Bar, Wash, machine polish and wax.
Depending on how bad the swirls are you may need to polish your car a couple of times.
Also if your new to Machining best bet is to get a scrap panel and practice your skills on that first before you take the machine to your car. Where abouts in the country are you?
Don;t bother with the 'Argos' crap. Waste of money and poor results.

The Megs g220 is very safe to use and is not aggressive as some people make out. So long as the pad is well spritzed with lube and there's plenty of polish you'll be fine. Also you must let the machine work under its own weight. Megs designed this for amateur Detailers alike.no2lurch wrote:i am worried about the buffer being a bit aggressive. could the polished you recommend be used by hand?
i'm in west midz.
The Megs 80 and 83 I believe can be used by hand, but will take considerable time to 'Break down' The Menzerna Polishes are designed to be used with the G220 or a Professional rotary.
Once you've used one you'll never go back to hand polishing again. I appreciate that they are not cheap, but the results are dazzling. Trust me, I've been using one now for over a year on various cars and have given my Sport a couple of hits using the Menzerna stuff and the finish is truly amazing.
I've attached some pics of my panels
