    clean car thread

    been a lot of clean car threads recently so thought id start one for all to post there clean cars in. mines desperate for a paint correction so isnt looking at its best but isnt to shabby either

    1st some wonder wheels cleaner. £5 from wilkinsons. my first choice is wolf chemical deironizer



    lashing of snow foam


    then while it was still wet i went around it with some quick detailer. works much better when the car is wet. somthing ill be doing all the time from now. thanks martyn for the tip







    done nothing to the engine bay. thatll get a good detail soon
