Car Cleaning

[GTA-Andy]

I figured I should take advantage of the excellent weather and give the car a good clean. Used a range of Autoglym products and pretty much did everything. Started with a pressure wash, then two buckets, rinse, polish, extra gloss, back to black, alloy sealant and finally some fast glass. I'm pretty happy with the result, great mirror shine that looks much better in real life.

*Sigh, I take car cleaning far too seriously... Anyone else like to keep their cars immaculate?

Looks vveerryy shiny that.

Sometimes i clean my mummy's car :)

[Joe!]

I polished mine today with some of that autoglym stuff, not sure what polish it was though :) smelt good :D
Probably should of actually given it a good wash before though...
Yours looks very very clean though:p

Owning a black car it means it gets dirty really really easily, so it gets hosed down at the jet wash every 2 days just to keep it looking clean ish, then gets a proper wash at least once a week (buckets & sponges etc..) and every month and/or if I'm going down to a show or something, I'll properly detail and clay the car with Auto Glym, but sometimes break out the Dodo Juice for a good claying :D

Car looks gleaming dude, I bum clean cars haha..

Yours looks mint! I go mental washing mine, Aldi had a mass of car cleaning products recently and I got my mum to go and get some stuff, I had a field day and look at 'er now!

2 days? You have to be kidding. With a jet wash?

That ill just ruin the paint..

[Metric1]

i have a pressure washer, works a treat and after washing the black bmw every few days the paint on it was fine. my car is filthy from the salt!!!

[GTA-Andy]

With a pressure was you have to be careful not to put swirl marks in while pushing the dirt off the car. It took me about six hours or so...

[Gibs960]

Looks really shiny, I love shiny cars, not really old shiny cars but yours isn't old so it looks awesome, awesome car by the way :D

[Sharon]

How much was the bill for all the products.

[scott]

I take mine to the car wash (y) £3 and they hand wash it
