To help dry the rrs I use a leaf blower and just finish off with a waffle cloth. The blower is great on blowing out water from inaccessible places. |

Am in same boat. Before the RR I used local jet wash, now I've got enough kit to start up in competition against them Especially love my AB Snow Foam Lance, makes things so easy! My RR's Orkney grey and looking at options to finish/seal it with. Out of interest, what was recommended to you? Thanks in advance J |

Had a dat at Autobrite head office in Stoke, and I did not know there are so many products out there to keep my baby clean, started at 10 am and a very knowledgeable guy called Clive, when though all the basics of wheel cleaning, pre washing, snow foaming, two bucket wash and drying. The course was called Back to Basics, and they show you all their products and haw to use them correctly, it wasn't a sales type course, there is a well stocked shop upstairs to buy if you wish. They also showed us how to get rid of scratches and swirl marks out of the paint using polish and DA & Rotory polishing machines, we worked on my sons car, (my baby was too clean) they polished a 300x 300 area in the center of the bonnet and only took about 10 mins and the result was fantastic, it was like a mirror, so we took it in turns to use the different machines to do the rest of the bonnet, what a difference it makes, very tempted to buy a machine and do mine, but think I may go to scrap yard first and have a long practice. There was only me and my son as I don't think they advertised it, there are normally 10 other like minded people for each course. Cost was £50 each, we got few cups of tea. Then I went upstairs to the shop and emptied my wallet. I bought

Yes, we did thanks. Just want to go out and clean my car, but because I was out all yesterday, I've had to do family stuff to keep her in doors happy, but I did manage to have a go with the snow foam on her car, but didn't give it a proper wash, coz it's only a sportage, and not wasting my products on a KIA MY 13 3.0 SDV6 HSE Black Edition

It is expensive, but you don't use much of it, the guy used a small round pad, put about 4 drops on it and that did most of the 2 more drops and the car was completed, he said if you can see it on the paint that's all you use. He did say most people use too much product, which in turn cost more to use and harder to buff off if using wax products. MY 13 3.0 SDV6 HSE Black Edition

We were lucky when we went as they didn't advertise it, there was only me and my son, and they normally only allow 10 people, we both went down in our own cars, but he saw mine and said it was to clean to work on so they used my sons, so if you want yours cleaning take it down dirty. They do make you a couple of brews, either take some dinner with you or there's a burger king about 10mins drive away, take plenty of cash, but don't tell her in doors, what you actually spent, I do as she does, I ask her how much were them shoes, whatever she says I double it you also get discount because of the course. Take a raincoat just in case as the 1st part washing is outside, enjoy MY 13 3.0 SDV6 HSE Black Edition
