My buddies at work and probably my neighbours probably spend hours laffing their asses off on my car cleaning obsession which i spend two hours on every Sunday.I think it stems from cleaning my dads cortina mk11 on sunday for a couple of quid then valeting cars for 10years must be in the blood.
The following was used
the meguiars trim cleaner n tyre sheen which is fab.
3m final glaze (used to gloss new paintwork but a brill for a shine) on the body.
Water n vineager?to clean windows why spend money on window cleaner.Happy shopper vineager on a damp paper towel and clean off with another paper towel for streak free results!.
And voila my valeter at work and member of this site would trade his left knacker to able to clean like that bleh.gif .HERES THE PICCYS

MOD EDIT: not a suitable hosting site wink.gif

I cleaned and polished mine last Saturday, then again on Wednesday as I was on holiday and it was a nice afternoon cos I had been on back roads that morning and it had been raining. Then a kind neighbour lit a bonfire Friday night and my blue car was covered with while ash on Saturday morning. Yes, I cleaned and polished it again yesterday ....... then went for 300+ mile run today ........ it's now worse than it was before I started the first time roflmao.gif roflmao.gif roflmao.gif
Back to work tomorrow so it will have to wait now woot2.gif
