I guess so, but its da same with most fings, they're hard graft but when they're done its so satisfying (if ya get me?)
Like when I give me car a good clean I take ages coz I do it thoroughly and I'm finking 'fook sake can't be arsed' but when I'm done its --->
Also like that when shagging the missus... thinking 'fuck sake this is crap' ... then when ya done it feels better

i used wet and dry first, for ages and ages then use metal polish to get it shiney! if you dont wet and dry you show up all the imperfections and it looks wank! its the bit under the plastic cover, i aint got the plastic cover on my engine as i have the lexmaul inlket so the cover dont fit!
