#1: Cleaned my car Author: TTnTT, Location: Telford,ShropshirePosted: Mon May 17, 2010 12:31 pm ---- Cleaned my car again got into a habit of doing it every saturday just ordered a load of interior stuff and some wash microfibers cant have to many
Ok a quick run down of what i used and what not
Used a lambs wool wash mitt and the 2 bucket method, aswell as Dodo juice born to be mild shampoo. Then dried it off with a meguiars water magnet drying towel. Then fully dried with 2 meguairs microfibers. I then used super resin polish by autoglym on it. And topped it all off with super natural wax applied with my fingers (havnt done all the car yet just bonnet,boot,doors)
Getting it all ready for FCS I have yet to get my coilovers and HOPEFULLY some euro alloys.
The wax wanted to do an arty photo

microfibre wash mitt is an alternative to a sponge, however if you like using a sponge you can get a micofibre sponge which i would reccomend i use one.
Two bucket method is when one bucket with shampoo mix and one with plain water is used, sponge/mitt is squeezed in clear bucket between dunks in shampoo bucket to avoid getting the cleaning water dirty

car looks great by the way mate, i know there's some wheels that would suit that. 2 secs ill get a link.
