I have my Dad's 9-year old Renault Megane for 2 weeks while he's away on holiday, so I thought I'd give Optimum a go as his paint is pretty bad, never been polished or waxed EVER! (should have put it in the extreme detail this month!). I had to clay the roof and bonnet a couple of times as it was covered in black spots and the paint was very flat indeed, not a hint of shine anywhere.
Still being tentative (and new to the PC), I tried the Optimum with a Megs polishing pad (it really needs an orange cutting pad) on one half of the roof to see what happened, speed 5 on the PC, after one pass the difference was very noticeable!
Still a long way to go, next time I'm going to use an orange pad, but initial results were pretty good considering the paint hasn't been touched in 9 years - there was green moss growing in the roof rails and the window seals!!!
The interior is almost as bad as the exterior too!
