It's clean!

[MikeDX]

Spent yesterday going over and getting rid of all the nasties.

My phone camera seems to only like taking blurry pics now

Found a small dent on the roof, a couple stone chips on the side skirt and a chip in the windscreen!! :@

Red looks soooo good when its just clean. Its bloody raining here (Heavily) so there'll be no car washing today up here.

 

[MikeDX]

Thanks dude!

It's now peeing it down here too.. but at least all the dirt is gone and i can just blade all the water off once it stops..

 

[Graeme GTR]

lovely, what did you use on it?

 

[Mike]

Nicely done

Mine needs doing, not been done in three weeks, maybe later lol

 

[MikeDX]

lovely, what did you use on it?

Bit of a mixture really.

First, tackled the alloys with wonderwheels (had previously been treated with turtle wax) - Currently on offer in asda for TWO QUID!!



and pressure washed each off, leaving them nice and sparkling!

pre-clean with pressure washer and a 5:1 mix of Farecla bodywork detox



wash all over with diamondbrite shampoo (1 cap to a bucket) and noodle mitt

pressure washer all the extra water/suds off with clean water

Used water blade and waffle weave water magnet to dry off

tackle stubborn bits with halfords bug & tar

Clean windows with mr muscle glass and window cleaner (currently only £1 in one stop!)

Treat wheels to turtle wax tyre dressing (this stuff smells amazing)

Hoovered inside with my best pal numatic george

and used megs ultimate protect on all the black trim inside and out.

Now i've written this, i can see why it took so bleedin long! :rofl:

 

[Graeme GTR]

lol, very nice. Was only looking to see what polish was used. Looks good, mon the red'ns!

 

[MikeDX]

lol sorry. I dont tend to use polish as its ben treated with diamondbrite, which has so far been good I must admit.

was fun finding all those pics though

That looks great Mike, gotta love a clean ultra red!

Be careful with that water blade though, any fine bits of dirt that might be left on the paint can get stuck under it and cause some serious scratching. Best thing would be to use the water blade on glass and towel on the paint

 

[MikeDX]

Cheers Ben, will keep that in mind

 

[Arran]

Lol! Love the pics mate, the George has had me in stitches! Ha ha!
