Default For those who like polishing...

I know a few people off here use a Dremmel to polish their downpipes etc and thought this looked like a good deal.

Bought one last night but haven't used it yet....cordless too!

I found the dremel, even on it's slowest setting, tended to do not much except fling gobs of autosol onto the engine, fairing, tyre, wheel, brake calipers, brake discs, my hair, my face, my clothes, the floor, the walls etc etc

You can't beat good old fashioned elbow grease

or directly into my eye once...autosol at nearlu a kmillion mph to the eye is no fun kids, you have been warned.

Anyway...they are also selling 50m rolls of duct tape for £1.99. I know i have paid more than that for a 5m roll from Robert Dyas before when i've run out and needed some in an emergancy. And its proper 3M stuff not some cheap imitation.
Now where is my nearest lidl again???
