Just read the whole thread. This is perfect. Loving everything you've done, mate.

I've got a Lupo GTI in the same colour, it's now made me want a Caddy to match. :roll:

Thanks [mention]micp [/mention]that would be pretty cool to have them matching, I wanted that with my T6 but they were out my price range

Cheers [mention]BrianBRL [/mention] it’s definitely took awhile to get it where it is now. Get a scrap panel and a polisher and just practice to understand it and see how you get on, start with a DA you can’t go wrong

Thats some good advice [mention]J_Con [/mention], will definitely look for a nice scrap piece to start practicing! But what is a DA if you dont mind me asking? :lol:

Sorry [mention]BrianBRL [/mention]it’s a dual action polisher, which means it oscillates making it harder to burn though the paint, where as a rotary just spins on the spot and causes a lot of heat and you can go through the paint so much easier

The van went in for a new exhaust and remap this week. What a difference driving it home!
It was put on the dyno aswell and made 264bhp with 396nm

Thanks [mention]Jase14 [/mention]. My go to for ceramic coating just now is NV Evo, it’s a 3 year coating. Gives a really deep wet look to the paint
