Another little task for 271 I didn’t know we could do but great result.
Changed the wipers and noticed there was some scuff marks on the rear glass.
Bit of YouTube research and a quick purchase of the following kit. ( Also used on my daughter’s Mini which had more noticeable scuffs too.)

Works really well though best masking up with newspaper to save a long
wash after.
Only 25 quid - well worth it and also works on lime scale on house windows

Before a few scuffs

Then a good polish

And after completely clear.

Well Car has been moved into storage again.
This time with the guys restoring my rally mini.

Now they have a nice big paint booth etc so …….one thing led to another and a discussion around tidying up the nicks and scratches of 20 years led to the following.

Um, that does look fine but why have they not removed all the odds and sods before spraying? I guess they know what they are doing but……….
