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 deironizerImage lashing of snow foam Image 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 Image Image Image done nothing to the engine bay. thatll get a good detail soon Image

not being able to do anything on BT at the minute, & with her parked partially under a tree she was looking a bit sorry for herself. So decided to treat her to a wash Before Image After. Unfortunately our hose isn't very powerful but it did get the clumpy bits off. Does anyone know of a mobile Kosowash Image
