A full t-cut and two coats of Collinite wax (sorry, I am a bit of a dinosaur and use old fashioned products!) and the work has made a huge difference.

For the headlights I used the Isopon kit from eBay. Just P1000 sandpaper, solvent wipes and spray sealer. All went well until the spray sealer which has left a mottled effect despite being well shaken, used at the correct distance and following the instructions correctly. I am hoping when fully dry they may polish to improve the surface. (any advice welcome)

For the tailpipes I used Autosol and just like the utube clip it was brilliant but hard work!

Thanks

Autosol is good especially with 4x0 wire wool
