been cleaning

[janoof1]

so ive had the zed for a month now, and i have yet to clean it since it left the dealer

i know, i know im a bit lazy

for all those lazy sods out there get a gm , it hides the dirt well

but when i woke up this morning and saw that a dirty bird had shat all over my baby i decided to clean it before it contracted bird flu

 

im pretty pleased by the results i did a 'simple' clean i compared with the efforts of some guys here !

1. water down with hose

 

2. autoglym shampoo windows and body w/ megs mitten using 2 bucket method

 

3. dry with megs water magnet (AMAZING product)(dry windows properly any you wont have to mess around with windex)

 

4. 2 coats of turtle speed wax using halfords luxury microfiber cloths(onsale 2for 2 pounds)

 

5. rays washed with leftover shampoo(waxed so v. easy to clean)

 

6. Autosol metal polish on exhaust

 

total time 45mins

 

and a whole afternoon of gazing

Looks fantastic . Starting to prefer the Gunmetal to the Azure. Blade Silver hides dirt good aswell, Ive got a silver primera that hasnt been washed in months and looks good

Very shiney,

 

 

Much better than my attempt, I went out at half time to give her a quick wash and hurried back to find the Toon Army had gone 2-1 down. Bugger.

much better but treat it to some nice Meguiars NXT wax rather than the speed wax. A longer lasting effect.

The joys of the various colours. I love my black one when its clean but it looks a bit crappy once ditry (read most of the time now the winter months are starting)

 

Silver does cover up the best. I sold my old blue 206. I cleaned it 100% before giving it to him and 1 month on bar the wheels it looked very clean yet mine looked a state and I had washed it 3 times since having it lol

wow 45 minutes!!

 

I did approx the same to my car (without the waxing) and it took me near to 2 hours

Amazing result in a short space of time! Longer lasting effects with better waxes and Autoglym wheel treatment.

 

Looks good!
