First ever mini detail wash!

[Spanky]

Hey guys,

Aint done one of these for ages, the thread that is so thought i may aswell pop one up.

Had the car 7 months now and ive only ever quickly washed it. So seen as though it was a nice day at the weekend i thought i would get the polish and wax out :)

Products used:

Ag wash n wax
Dodo juice clay and lub
Ag srp
Dodo juice diamond white
Megs tyre shine
Autosol metal polish

as you will see from the pics below the car was not that dirty to start with but damn the paint had some bad contamination on it!

Thanks for looking, if anyone does :D

[vtectransplant]

Tidy. :y:

[Jizanthapus]

Looks nice and shiney!

I really need to get round to claying the 106!

[Spanky]

I was shocked how bad the contamination was, sandpaper is smoother!

thats just one layer of wax, wanted to get atleast 2 on but the weather wouldnt let me :n:

[stevo67]

Looks good that does.

[nicole_]

nice! what a difference :)

[griff_106]

Nice one mate looking good! Always satisfying to feel a given panel turn from a gritty mess to smooth as glass :)

You might want to get some IronX on those alloys to really get the brake dust off them - it'll be alot easier than claying them and then sealing them up will obviously make them easier to maintain :y:

[MuZiZZle]

I got about 3 goes out of a £16 bottle of iron-x :oops:

[Spanky]

As far as the alloys go they are fooked

weatherd to hell with paint coming off etc :( do the best i can for now untill i can get them refurbed

thanks for the comments though guys and girls :)

[Manwhore]

Gloss :)

[tomparker95]

Car looks smart! Nice one :)
