I took advantage of a reasonably good day and gave 'burpy' a damn good clean!

Bought some new cleaning products last week and this was my first chance to use them.

The products I used were:-

Meg's Gold Class shampoo
AutoGlym Super Resin Polish
Collinite #845 Insulator Wax

and then

some generic 'bumper trim' stuff for the plastic
and CarPlan 'Tyre Slik' for the tyres

Everything was applied using various microfibre cloths/sponges etc.

I think it looks pretty sexy - what do you think?

Really nice.

hyperbluejames · Feb 13th, 2007, 06:17 PM

Good job! That must have taken a few hours.

wow so shinny your hands will be sore waxing but it was worth it looks the muts

thanks for the comments guys - it only took me 2 hours & it was quite easy to do, although it's a reasonably new car so it still has a decent amount of 'factory shine' on it
