You'll Have to get out and clean the car then.

Don't forget everybody post what you used so people can see the results of different products

Here's a few of mine after it was washed, A-Glazed, then washed again...

TimCS · Feb 3rd, 2007, 10:54 AM

Right that's the exterior done.....

Alloys cleaned with Wonder Wheels.
Body washed with Autoglym Bodywork Shampoo.
Not dried but sponged over with Mer, then wiped off.
Bottom 3rd of car and entire rear de-grimed with Holts Surface Cleaner - you'd be amazed at how many tar spots/exhaust spots show themselves when you use this!
Body waxed with Meguiars Gold Class.
Black plastics treated with Armorall Protectant.
Tyres sprayed with Armorall Extreme Tire Shine.
Stonechips touched in with EOM Chili Red

Perfect weather!

Looking very nice Paul - very cool pic's

Looking great Tim

TimCS · Feb 3rd, 2007, 04:52 PM

So Baskers and I planned today as a Miniclean fest. Several hours later and Baskers is now initiated in the ways of "detailing!" Then we went down to the local leisure centre car park for a dusktime photo shoot. What do you think?

neilobe · Feb 3rd, 2007, 05:08 PM

Cleaned mine today having just got it back yesterday from being all week at the mini garage, for new clutch, flywheel and servo,...
2 and half hours all washed and polished, leather treated too, with armour leather condtioner.

Paul · Feb 3rd, 2007, 05:15 PM

I do think a nicely cleaned red/white S looks fantastic.

TimCS · Feb 3rd, 2007, 05:36 PM

I agree Paul! Thanks!

Looking good supa,

When we have had a few more posts I will update the first post with a list of the most popular products

R99 · Feb 3rd, 2007, 09:27 PM

Not up to the standard of those allready on, but gave it a good clean with just traditional car soap. Quite tempted to try one of these clay bars, any recomendations?

James.
