Cheers! It was washed with Chemical Guys Maxi Suds, then just AutoGlym Super Resin Polish

Really needs a good coat of wax to seal it all up now though!

Cleaned it on saturday. 2 months to go and the MINI turns 6 years.

I spent most of Friday cleaning my Cooper S, what do you guys and gals think of her?

I cleaned it as normal, 2 bucket lambs wool mitt etc, and then leathered. I then tried my latest cleaning product purchases, the Meguiars 3 stage deep crystal stuff. I used the paint cleaner, then the polish and then waxed it. Also gave the exhausts a polish with Meguiars nxt Polysh. Also did the bumpers with Autoglym bumper and trim protection. Would have gone on to do the interior but the girlfriend would have killed me I think!

I couldn't believe the shine this Meguiars stuff brings out, but I think in the future I wanna try a clay bar to really get the surface glassy smooth!

Unfortunately it started raining almost as soon as I had finished but I managed to squeeze in some photos! (although the light wasn't brilliant). The photos don't really do it justice to be honest it just looks so bright and shiny now. Anyways check it out!

I bought a new short Honda S2000 ariel which I think sets it off quite nicely. I'm thinking about lowering her, as I think this would improve the look quite a lot? What do you think?

mini33 · Feb 3rd, 2008, 08:31 AM

Thats one shiny Cooper S mikbmini & although the lights wasn't great you can see it glowing

I promise it dont stay like that for long & when it rains again, those pics will be a distant memory

As i well know

Well looked after cooper s

Nice
