Dogconker Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I use meguairs interior detail spray. Not used for a while though so can't recall the smell, but it shines the black bits up nicely lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I use the same, smells quite nice, but I use autoglym interior freshener spray to make the car smell really fresh and nice.

mfnick Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Even if it's a new sponge every time ? And never actually touches the bucket ? My paintwork 's not the best anyway. Isn't the idea of shop to hold dirt particles in suspension in the Water,Afraid so mate. Sponges rub the dirt and grit into the paintwork whether new or not. microfibre cloths and lamb wool mitt ( :) ) lift the crap away from the paint and can be reused. And as has been said before the people 2 bucket method is to have one with water to collect the crap and the other has nice clean soapy water to wash the car with without putting grit and dirt back onto the car. Works best with those bucket grit catches too. Sorry to sound a **** with it but it definitely helps the paintwork hold up and I noticed a definite improvement in scratches and swirls when polishing after using these methods.

Xander Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Fitted a sun strip dident get it perfect due to a few bits of dirt so think I will take it off and might try again when we get some better weather. The matte roof looks amazing :-D I would do mine but not sure it's worth it on a dark grey car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david1972 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 You can pick up a washer quite cheap nowadays, but the lance for the snow foam cost me 50 sheets [emoji33] It's meant to be one of the best ones though so told myself 'twas a one off cost [emoji6] Has improved the quality of wash no end though, so pleased I dug deep Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quit Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 my pressure washer was 40 quid out of machine mart, been pretty good even tho i neglect it and abuse it plus my mate thought it would be funny to fill my hose pipe up with cheapo washing up liquid when it was a in a reel (must took him ages) went to clean my bike and just got foam..... for ages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Nevell try..... mark@lateral performance or alyn@AS performance either of them should have injector o rings in stock give either of them a bell rather than ordering through their websites ,as they don't list all their stock online[emoji6] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
