As always Spens your car looks fantastic... Don't you ever get mud/rain where you live?

[spenspuma]

If it rains then i dont go to work

[StarMonkey]

Looking fantastic as usual

[happy-kat]

just a thought, but I'm on a hose pipe ban and have been since August last year... right through winter... how come you can use this much water? You must be up north anyway that's my excuse why I am only washing mine once every three months

[StarMonkey]

I haven't even got an outside tap at my house

When I do it myself, I just use 2 buckets and have to keep refilling them. That's too much like hard work though, so most of the time I go round the corner from where I live and pay the local handwash guys a fiver to do it. Then I drive home and polish

Nice wheels and Tyres; impressed; look like they have just come out of the box

Fantastic!!

As a none-detailer myself, I always find it daunting how many products and time is needed for a top notch job.

Do you need to lose the old wax before you polish? thats the bit I don't undestand. I was always told to use fairy liquid or some other mild detergant if I wanted to get rid of the wax. Usually I just use one of those wash and wax additives, then finish it with Autoglym showshine, tyre trim and bumper trim if I am trying to flog it!

It must really pee you off the state of the roads right now! it'll be nearly as filthy as mine come 10am on Monday..
