Hi,
Want to get into cleaning the car properly so after recommendations on products and techniques
My Java black is looking like it needs some TLC specifically lots of very fine scratches to remove.
Cheers

You need to contact JKP who is the forum detailing guru, and a site sponsor
He can supply suitable products and advise how to use them

I recently turned-in my java black LR3, which was regularly used on gravel and overgrown brush "roads". Lots of sage-brush pinstriping and was even keyed, yet did not have any visible scratches. No damage or money due LRNA at lease-end.
3 times a year: Aggressive polish with Random Orbital Polisher on surface scratches/marks, fine polish with ROP, Wax prep spray, Sealant. I used Griot's products, but I'm sure others work well too.
Bad scratches pinstriping: Lanka Sanding kit and Lanka Blob remover
Of course, you can also just bring it to a professional and be done with it. '06 LR3 V8 SE - recently returned on lease end
'08 FFRR
'09 Cayenne GTS - Manual w/ PDCC
'07 Cayman (gone unfortunately)
