I disagree.
I find that when cleaning it I notice all the imperfections like chips, scratches lacquer cracks etc. So I get annoyed
#7: Re: Roll on Monday, car is getting machine polished Author: pinxton_boy, Location: pinxton, nottsPosted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 8:56 am ---- i might move down your way so you can clean mine then. i spent about 50 squid on all the cleaning gear the other week. when i'd finished it looked worse than when i started so i had to cheat and take it to the hand car wash lol.

I agree I get annoyed at stone chips etc, still it looks better clean with stone chips than dirty with stone chips lol

The thing is when tour doing your own car you can stop like I have now, I'm going to go and do the interior in a min, you can't do that when your getting paid for it, I do love cleaning it though and the missus is happy that my hobby is relatively inexpensive, well after you've spent a couple hundred on decent cleaning products

Depend's if you have the time, The Iraq's near me are actually pretty good. I do know though If I did have the time I could think of better thing's to do in three hour's than clean my car
#13: Re: Roll on Monday, car is getting machine polished Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 9:13 am ---- I'm just trying to keep myself busy mate because if I stop I'll fall asleep lol, and the polish near me are bad for cleaning cars, use dirty sponges and water, I would rather clean the car with p**s and a Brillo pad

#17: Re: Roll on Monday, car is getting machine polished Author: doughboy5, Location: devon(weekends) nr cambridge(in the week)Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 9:31 am ---- looks awsome i find cleaning my car calming but the missus always get a bag on that i spend loads of time doing it. lol. however next weekend she has said i can do mine aslong as i do the other 2 on the drive aswell so thik i may be spending all day out there. lol.
#18: Re: Roll on Monday, car is getting machine polished Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 9:31 am ---- I know it can, I think a machine polisher is next on my list but it will purely be for my own car, I wouldn't want to do it for a living all the time, but i can understand why other people would, great way to earn money doing something your passionate about

I refuse to clean the 308 regular as the missus drives it more than me and she doesn't care at all! And she's curbed the 17 inch alloys on it which would annoy me when cleaning them, sometimes I give in and just clean it as it makes the drive look untidy.....bloody women haha

Incidently what was your routine today? Because if Andrew is machine polishing next week anything more than a simple wash and clay would be totally wasted

Try a Dodo shampoo like born to be mild or sour power, you will love it
Sounds good make sure Andrew takes lots of pictures!
