bronzee Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Am i missing anything It pays to have a few microfibre cloths extra I think, also don't forget to clean the inside and outside of your windows. Metal cleaner for your exhaust pipes and metal under the bonnet etc. It really depends how cleaning crazy you want to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nixy Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I use all sorts of stuff - two of my favourite things are a quick or speed detailer spritzed over the car while drying it - makes it easier to dry as it disperses the water and adds a bit of wax at the same time. I've got megs speed detailer at the mo but there are others out there. Best wax i've used so far is Einzett Glanz Wax which really brings out the glittery flake bits in the paint. As Bronzee says, lots of microfibre cloths are a must and the best by far that I have ever used is the E-Cloth http://www.ecohamster.co.uk/product_inf ... ts_id=8668 You can get an e-cloth pack for the car but if you only ever use these two you will be amazed - the thick one to get streaks off when drying and the thin one for glass - never used microfibres as good before but remember not to use fabric conditioner when you wash them!

bronzee Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Lil tip, keep each cloth for a single product, gets packs with different coloured cloths. Wash those cloths in the washing machine (no fabric softener though) after each use too, to keep them in tip top condition, to minimise marring.
