Took advantage os some over sunshine yesterday and washed the RRS, foam lance and Meguiars shampoo, polished with Autgym Super Resin Polish on a dual action, buffed up with a microfibre, sealed with Autogym extra Gloss Protection, left to cure for 1 hour and buffed up with microfibre, waxed with Poorboys Nattys Paste Wax.

The car looks the dogs - and I cant move my right shoulder lol!  FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy
Ex 2006 RRS SC - garbage
Ex 2016 135i M Sport - dream car
Ex 2003 RS6 Avant - piece of cr*p
Ex 2014 320d X Drive, M Sport Touring - ok I guess
Ex 2007 RRS TDV8 - bloody loved it
EX 2007 FL2 XS - not so bad

Had a good day yesterday, went for a polishing tuition with a rotary, came back and used a coat of Dodo Supernatural, poilshed the alloys, tyres looking good - all windows done - and it's frickin raining today....WTF!!!!

And I bought 50 Microfibre yellow detailing cloths to be told they are not very good (even though I think they are!) I saw the Zaino ones this guy used and I would like a suit made of it, it felt so good!! 3 for £20 - will pick some up tomorrow..

Got to say the Dodo juice is growing on me - but what to do with the SRP!!!! Sainsburys selling it very very cheap (£1.70 something) pop along and take a look.....

SRP ?

Autoglym Super Resin Polish - a really good polish/cleanser and mild filler.......an all round great pre-wax product.....

Nick, were did you get the MF cloths? I get mine from costco's. I think they are fine, though I do have some plush ones to use after waxing etc

scuppered this morning with the rain too, only for it to stop later and the sun come out

Bradders if the wheels are getting the full treatment have a look at gtechniq c5 wheel armour or nanolex equivilent both use nano technology and from what I have seen they are spot on

Cheers, Nick - I'll check out your suggestions for the wheel selants. Ive got the yellow Costco cloths and they are brilliant and cheap enough to bin rather than stciking them in the wash with Mrs Bradders smalls!  FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

Yup mine are going in the bin after they get really dirty...they still work well enough for me. I'm getting the Zaino cloths, a rotary and Mez cutting stuff this week - and believe it or not, a feather duster ticking brush - yes I know very very gay...but better at getting dust of than using a cloth which would bring back swirls potentially.....

My wheels are caked in brake dust in the spoke backs and cormers - heard horror stories on what to use and what not to use....

Recommendations ?
