Amazing work.. Congrats on the final outcome.

I had a question for you.
Today my brother bought some turtle wax compound paste. ( pink coloured ). I used it on my side doors and corners and had excellent results, eventually i went ahead and did it on the entire bonnet. However since the bonnet is pretty big area, due to unequal pressure, I did not do a good job. Although the car looks absolutely white now rather than fainted white or off white and bonnet looks nice and very clean, it looks a bit dull and lacks a bit of shine now.. Would it be all right if I buy Meguiar's Ultimate polish and use it??

Dunno if this is the right place for this. But looking to get new tyres for my 2010 Honda Civic Reborn. Going to stay away from Eurostar. Looking to get Bridgestone. What do you people suggest? Approximate pricing?

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
