    THE BEAR MIN!!!!

    They "fixed" the roof on my Cooper after a bird accident, set about it with a power buff and left HUGE swirl marks in big parallel lines all the way down the roof. They may hae just put a pleb on it though so be sure and make it clear you don't want your finish wrecked!!! :(

    Scottie - as you have lots of excellent products in your arsenal already i'd tell the dealer not to wax the car at the PDI stage - then when you get it home get alan to give it the works :)
