Yeah, tuesday i must have looked a weirdo, huge gazebo over the drive coz of the drizzle, and working under spot lights when it got dark before it was picked up. Im just up on Primrose Hill around the corner from you.

it was only a wash underneath, then waxed! protected + will be topped up again + again.
 
  Shed.
Why would you clean under it?


Some people are that way inclined.

I was once like that. BUT fortunately i pulled my head out of my ass and realised i was being a self indulgent r****d. The cost of wax and other products is stupid. I still wash my car properly though.

e/ Car looks fantastic though. Shame its winter and itll be kaped in shite in another 10 miles of driving.


I once did a detail like this on my dads colt, been over 7 months now and it still beads like new. 2 Layers Of EGP and 3 of Collinite seems to work very well lol.

bloody hell lol loving the effort put in

Thanks bud, I really enjoy doing it! Does any one need a detail? short on customers, getting the shakes! lol :eek:

how easy is it to do the wheels?

I tried to do mine, and gave up after half of 1, got annoyed!

The wheels were the easiest imo, but very heavy 4me! why did you get annoyed? bring your car to me ;)

I meant the actual inside of the wheel, i love my car clean, and the inside of the wheels is the 1 area i hate :D

I hate doing the roof, only coz im all of 5ft 3 :eek:

If i were you i would take your wheels off as its much easier. PITA to get inside the spokes when on :)

Yea i'll be taking the wheels off, anything to put on the inside of the rim to get rid of the baked on brake dust?

What wheel cleaner do you use?

i use as smart wheels. If that doesnt shift it then maybe as tardis or g101?
Then a good clay session.

At the minute, i'm just usually AG Clean Wheels, but it doesnt seem to get the baked on stuff off, i spose i could give it a go 2moro with the pressure washer and see if that helps :)
