Had a slight issue in the form that my passenger window dropped into the door the other day and the motor is fucked, so new motor and while assembly required plus the drivers side has gone so that'll need replacing...

Much better dude, massive difference a good clean makes. Do you use just the one bucket however or two when you are washing your car? Ie a soapy water bucket and a clean water bucket? (Don't know if that made sense). As with the amount of dirt you had on there, washing with just the one could be a ppathway to many a swirl mark.

Jet washed first to remove grit and hard stuff but then one bucket of soapy water and then a hose off at the end

When washing, always make sure you have a second bucket. So Mitt (or whatever you sue to wash) goes into soapy water, washes down car/panel etc, then rinse off in the clean water to remove all grit that has got caught in the mitt. That way the soapy water bucket, the bucket of water that is essentially cleaning you car remains as grit free as possible and as a result you reduce the risk of contaminating you mitt. As a result reduced swirl marks.

Just a little pointer, will maintain quality of paintwork for longer dude.

So the rota zeros didn't happen so instead I have temporarily painted mine and am saving for powder coating 4dc9ce3084ac1561df5bc38e1ebcdf30.jpg1d214a30eaa1e3c409d7739529878c33.jpga83e4eaed073d1ab94a4f27adcb3e4af.jpg

Clean the tyres dude and get some black shoe polish on them, will set it off a treat. Nothing worse than dirty tyres when the rest of the car is looking clean.
