hi all i recently bought some new cleaning stuff this week and decided to try it all out today as had a couple of hours free the car had not been washed since last wednesday so was in depsperate need of a wash.
first of all gave the car a washing down then applied some snow foam using the karcher jet wash.

the car was then rinsed off.


now i have never used the two bucket method so decided to give it a whirl and i agree that it should allways be used now as its the best form of cleaning the car.

any comment would be much appriciated,it took me roughly 5 hours to complete the whole car the car is a respray so not many swirls to deal with it has been resprayed the same colour as the megane's (liquid yellow)
 
good work paul love the colour of your car stands out a bit i bet in sunlight , good choice with the range of products but whats the sand for lmao onlt joking keep up the good work
 
lmao forgot about that. cheers ive only seen it a few times in the sun and its allways been dirty bring on summer
 
how did you rate the gliptone cleaner and restorer? i used this for the first time this week, my seats are in the same condition as yours. didnt get the results i was hoping for :(
 
depends it not rearly a cleaner you can just throw on and clean off in couple of minutes i applied 3 coats of cleaner and 2 coats of conditioner. i highly recomend it but you do need to spend a bit of time on the seats to get good results
 
i duno m8 it was painted when i bought it last september i think it got reprayed about 18-20months ago few swirls need to get the da out to get rid of them
 
really good results there mate!! paint looks freshhhh!! loving the sign in the window!!! (last pic)
 
Love the colour, good work :icon_thumright:
 
Excellent, liquid yellow in one of my favourite colours for sure!
