Cheers.
If Silicone was bad for the paint then it would be showing nicely on Black Sapphire. Mine is a long long way from looking bad. I rate HD highly, altough time consuming. I will be so bold to say that mine would be knocking on the door of the big boys with their fancy more expensive compounds. I love the results im getting with mine.

A family concern, which own two garages in the Woodbridge district. Car valeting is something which i have done since I was 15 for all the family motors. Have tried pretty much everything over the years. With lots of different cars. After 14 years I'm still learning. But I'm happily looking after my Astra too the max with all the experience. This is the motor which will stand out from the rest for me. I love it. So glad I went for Black Sapphire, it gets plenty of attention for a subtle colour. Must be the shine
