Hmmmm thats a method i hadn't considered....... might have to give that a go! Autosol is avaliable at autobarn/ super cheap auto im guessing? only got silvo kicking around the place. Ill keep you guys posted on how it works, i try burky's and mikes method if it dosnt work.[/quote]

Dont be lazy... for $14 you can buy an angle grinder at Mitre 10.... Get some earplugs and a buffing pad.... Buff it to hell!
