**WARNING LONG POST***
Hi all. After having Fran from FMDetailing coming around to ceramic protect my car etc. I decided to take it on myself to keep the car in order rather than going to the local garage for a clean.
So much equipment I need to buy . Having brought a Karcher K4 Pressure Washer, hosepipe , 3 x buckets, 3 x grit guards, drying towel etc . There is still more to buy. But all very confusing as a beginner and wonder if people can help.
Snow Foam / Prewash
I still thinking about a snow foam device, do i need prewash, which shampoo to buy.
Alloys and Tyres
I have been recommended Hamber Auto wheel, but do I need something to clean the alloys with , such as Mitt or brushes or both. I have also seen videos of people cleaning the tyre to. what do i need for this , just a brush?
Drying Car
I have seen some people have got air blowers that remove the water from the car instead of using a towel but not sure how effective these are. So will stick with the towel for now.
Inside of Car
I prefer not to keep lugging my Dyson vacum downstair and wanted to get something to leave in the garage , what do people use ? a dedicated service or a handheld cordless one ?
How do you clean the inside and remove the dust build up , do you use wipes / microfibre cleaner agents, and how do you clean the steering wheel for example.
Glass
Do you use something to clean the inside and outside of the garage and what is recommended.
I have been told by Fran to get some Max Protect Silk coat to top up my protection on the car.
I know people will have different opinions but would love an idiot guide to get me started. Think that covers everything for now.
Thanks in advance.
