Well its that time of year again........ your waking your cars up from there winter naps etc. and some of us have have braved one of the harsh'est winters our cars have ever known,
and were all thinking about shiny cars (well i amm any way)
What are your favourte cleaning products,
over the last few weeks i have been buying a few bits "n" bobs.
I got my car back yesterday from the bodyshop and decided it needed a good clean so i set about it (I am not expert in detailing) and never will be (but I do class my cleaning regime marginly better than my neighbours washing up liquid old "y" fronts and an old kitchen towel for drying)[:D]
any way i said to the mrs last night " i'm just going to give the car a quick rinse to get some of the dust off " HA HA quick........ three and a half hours later........ and I havent touched the inside, door jambs, under the bonnet, hood or the boot, dust gets everywhere she thinks she's gardening today [;)]
I washed it twice with Autoglym shampoo/conditioner rinsed and dried off with a microfibre drying towel (one of the new bit "n" bobs) and (bucking frilliant it was to, I'll never use a chamois again"
then used autoglym super resin polish followed some autoglym extra gloss finish I am thinking of using a proper wax to finish it off properly although I havent bought one yet and although I do like the autoglym range I think £40 for a wax is a bit steep (high definition wax) but then again if it does the job well,
for the bumpers used smartgel by smartwax and this stuff is the dogs ######## to do the rear bumper two blobs the size of ten pence pieces was plenty and it was the same front.
Anyway I'll post a pic or two later
It rides again..... and again wehey!!!!!!!
