Fezza 456Gt... KHAAAK soft paint WAAAY too much to tape off and you'll spend at least a week detailing that engine bay - Don't even go near a F40... same paint, more surface than a cayenne and if you say you'll do engine you have a problem in your head...

And then I'm also NOT very fond of old VAG cars, the paint is FAK Hard... takes so long

I would think the paint on a F40 is too thin to safely machine polish.

Perhaps Mr Savage has balls the size of car wheels?

Hehe, no but I have a very trusting friend with a few fezzas :-)

Rosso sport does a de-swirl and polish at service time (Don't worry even if they charged you an extra R1500 you wouldn't notice the difference on your invoice) and they use "Special Ferrari polish" applied with cotton wool by hand

I had a look around, guys do actually machine polish them. Lol I would love to know what special Ferrari polish is. Prob something very pretty common otherwise they would have named it.
