Gilmore
Arrived 2 day's ago.. finally got round to using it.. Great bit of kit,
Wandering what a gilmore is?, read one of polished bliss detailing threads  , I think barret will be sorting a group buy out for people, there only 50 pound but worth it in my opinion

Tis an adapater gun what fit's onto the end of a hose, it sprays the water/shampoo out as a foam so it settles into the dirt and breaks it down but you don't really care because you don't clean your car much 
edit: thanks for the post count +1, nearlly 5k now :o

you're right i dont care.
But I do secretly clean my car like a mofo, interesting bit of kit. I've got a karsher in the garage which can soak suds up at the same time and blast them out.
same thing? or is this jobby a little much sophisticated? It looks it.

Howcome your back wheels are so dark compared to the fronts? Your brake bias out or just using different pads?

Everytime i see your car it makes me want a green one, and i just though 'oooh anthracite wheels look nice' but the fronts were still light, thought you were trying somthing wacky untill common sense prevailed

the gilmore is worth it yes.
Its really good when you use super snow foam mixed with a bit of poorboys slick and suds. (think that was the combination)
The karcher does basically the same job, but doesnt make it quite as 'foamy' as the gilmore does.

I only used the poorboys super slick and suds, I dident realise that if you combined the super snow foam with it that it get's better..
