Sun was shining, and a recent delivery from Polished Bliss (www.polishedbliss.co.uk) was in need of a thorough trial ... so set to work on my '03 T350 this morning and 4 hours later was well happy with the results (apart from the sunburnt back!!) ...

Time didn't allow for the claying / swirl removal i'd planned so a clean / polish and wax had to suffice...



Depth of the shine is shown by the reflections:



Leather interior restored to 'as new' condition:



And all exterior 'details' polished to within an inch of their lives:



Not bad, IMHO, for a 4+ year old car

For those people that are interested (although I doubt there are many of you ) ... the process / products were:

- Bodywork and glass washed using Meguiars Gold Class Shampoo, Meguiars Lambswool wash-mitt
- Wheel-arches washed using Meguiars Microfibre wash-mitt
- Dried using Poorboy's waffle-weave towel
- Wheels washed using Meguiars hot rims and Meguiars versa-angle wheel brush
- Tyres 'dressed' with Meguiars Endurance high-gloss tyre Gel
- Polished with Jeffs Werkstatt Prime Acrylic applied and Ultimate German Applicator pad
- Buffed off using Poorboy's Super Thick & Plush Towel, with a spray off Jeffs Acrylic Glos
- Coat of Jeffs Acrylic Jett Trigger applied and buffed with Poorboy's Deluxe Mega Towel
- Interior leather cleaned with Poorboy's Leather Stuff
- Exhaust tips polished with Meguiars Nxt Gen All Metall Polish

Chris (SEN 18) evidently did an excellent job of looking after the car before I took ownership, which made my life a lot easier!!

I think you missed a bit...

Joke, but on a serious note its really useful to see what products etc you use to get those results.

Nice one, looks great!
