Well i took a few pics of the car after a full detail to it, though due to being off my mobile you can never appriciate the quality and how good the paint looks but hey!!
Heres what i done:
1)Removed traffic film with citris degreaser
2)Jet wash rest of car and removed excess degreaser
3)Shampoo'ed with born to be mild using 2 bucket method
4)Clayed using gentle grey clay and megs quick detailer
5)Rinse off
6)remove light scratches and swirls with megs ultimate compound, medium grade pad with D.A.
6)Polished with poorboys on a finishing pad on D.A.
7)Then pre-wax cleansed with lime prime
8)Then 3 coats of blue velvet wax (24 hour curing time between waxes)
9)Then 1 coat of AG gloss protector.
10)Then all round clense with tropical red mist
I lie not when i say you can know literally throw a bucket of water of my car now and it does not even touch the paint with leavin not one water mark at all.

Im looking forward to Davey replying. I'd imagine it would be something like this...
Nice bit of muddy lake water to cleanse the pores of the body work:
Cost = free
Quick brillo pad job to get rid of the nasty paint imperfections:
Cost = 57p from poundland
Some dishwater for a good honest shampoo:
Cost = Free
Some 'Manly Man' elbow grease:
Cost = £2

Next, a dry off with some JCloths:
Cost = 64p from "Harrods" in Bracknell
Trust Mr Sheen for that good old polished look:
Then a buff up from your sisters best friend:

On a serious note, the car looks great - but its a shame you cannot see all the hard work from the phone photos.... nice job
