Offline | Cleaning Ok I just want to check I'm doing things right. I walk into Halfords and want to run away there are so many products to choose from, because it seems like a very tricky business. Exterior:- First of all I go for a jet wash, and use alloy wheel cleaner Then if there's any heavy soiling I remove it with car wash wipes I clean the glass with glass cleaning wipes then use a microfibre towel to buff and prevent streaking I use Black in a Flash on the mirrors and trims (turtle wax) Dry the car with a chamois leather Interior:- Hoover EVERYTHING, lol. Dashboard cleaning wipes. Good old fashioned water for soluble marks Also, I'm a bit scared of doing something bad to my Mini and the dash cleaning wipes, I'm not sure if when they dry in, they dry in streaky? Does anyone know?I know it's all sprays and wipes, because I don't fancy splashing liquid around where there is sensitive metallic paint and upholstery Does this sound ok? Is there anything horrifically wrong with it? |
