Nice day so decided to give the Golf a proper clean. Black is a pain in the arse to keep looking good. So citrus prewash sprayed on to get rid of the main dirt, jet washed off, two bucket wash using meguiars shampoo and a wolly mammouth mitt. Dried with an Adams towel. Da polisher used to remove the light swirl marks with poor boys light cut cutting compound. Poor boys blue wax then applied and finished with a coat of Zymol Z8 sealant. Wheel arches tfr'd then a coat of Adams unde carriage spray. Wheels iron X, meguiars wheel cleaner then poor boys wheel sealant. Tyres washed then G-technic tyre gel applied. My M3 has had so many coatings of polishes, wax and sealants since I've had it, that a quick snow foam, two bucket wash then quick detailer brings it up to scratch pretty quickly.

You got to love a black car when someone properly gives it a good going over. I looked at this stuff tonight http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/gyeon-q2-booster-cat12.html Will do some research on it, but want to try something different on the R for summer.

Good job there! Black is a pain but when done properly like this it looks fantastic. The car actually looks wet and has a lot depth to it. Great pics btw!
