430 Detail

[sone]

Never been a great believer in the need for detailing before, but having had Steve of stevescleenz.co.uk over from Tamworth I've been more than impressed with the results. Cars the cleanest since I've owned it so alls good. See attached link.

looks good mate,detailing shows really well on black cars.i did my old v8v which was black and it was a few hundred quid well spent.just you make sure you wash it with the 2 bucket method or you will break your own heart very quickly!!!

[AA355]

two bucket method? whats that?

[Agoogy]

One bucket with soapy suds, one with clean water
Wash car with soapy suds and rinse sponge to make sure nothing gritty goes back on the car
move along and use soapy sponge...rinse..soap..rinse...soap...rinse...etc

[tuscaneer]

SPONGE...SPONGE!!!!!!!!!....you vile creature!! i think the words you are looking for are "lambswool washmitt"!!

...the shame...
Shows how long its been since I washed my car...and yes I have washmit.... why did I say sponge?! WHY!!!!

[tuscaneer]

i shall forgive this transgression once and once only seeing as you claim to own a washmit.the next time you act in such a manner i will require photographic evidence of said washmit with your hand in it and some birds custard.

I thought soapy water (ie washing up liquid) breaks down the polish barrier ?

I was taught just use clear water .......... or polish the car again after !

if i get wind of anyone,i mean anyone using washing up liquid to wash their car i will track them down and put a fearful beating on them myself.i will also film the hiding and post it on youtube

Even if said washing up liquid is used with a yellow sponge (you know, the ones with the rougher green stuff on the back). Even Ecover?

i'm afraid that the combined usage of washing up liquid and a yellow sponge would render the user detatched from his senses before he hit the floor.and then executed.

An apostrophe S would make that sentence so much more interesting
