mop a top! was created by Bee
Just looked at eddy and seen loads of swirl marks. so my questions are:
what is involved in mopping a car?
can i do it myself or is it best to get a professional to do it?

Yes you can do it yourself but it isnt recommened unless you have some experience, plus youd need to buy the mop/da assuming you dont already have one which could cost anywhere from 150 upwards(thats not including the products youd need) Also with doing it yourself you could end up burning your paint and therefore ruining your car. I admit it does look like an easy task but i can assure you there is a lot more to it than there looks.

Yeah lot of work involved, if used incorreclty it could even cause more damage than good. I had a mop at one point, was only cheap but it was more hassle than by hand! For swirl marks i just used maguirs gen x or somthing, cant remeber...

mopping is something best left to the professionals from what i have heard,can easily damage your paint if you arent completely sure on how to use the kit

If done wrong it's the worse thing ever! Burns paint if going too fast, causes swirls if going too slow, you have to have alot of practice behind you!
Have a look at that blue T350c i did, that didn't have one swirl!
