READ IT, IT'S NOT JUST PICS

Stuff used:
TW Car shampoo, with some Fairy liquid too for bubbles
Car Plan Eco Wheel Cleaner + Brush
AG Poilsh
Meg's Wax
Meg's tyre Gel
AG Glass cleaner
Meg's Metal polish
TW Cock Shine
Black Ice Magic tree

Bucket and a bin.

To keep some of you detailing buffs happy i've done a few things to help along the wash this time and may please you.

First I changed my headunit to tidy the interior, then took off my numberplates to clean behind them. Tried a fake foaming thing, and also two bucket method for the first time, except I only own one bucket so used a Ikea bin

It came out pretty spanking! I included a few during pics!

Before:





During:
Wash:
Started with a Pressure wash, then cleaned the wheels with brush, then added soap to pressure washer for 'make believe' foamer, then two bucket wash down and rinse, dryed.

Detail:
added tyre gel, then polish, then wax, then detailed black trim, added new number plates, drove to shake out any loose water, parked and dryed again.

My cleaning shizzle! Don't even take the piss!


Ghetto 2 Bucket


Fake foamer lol

good job mate love it.

love your second bucket haha there all the same and your black ice tree haha

It's a new tree thank you very much! I just hang it there!

that a point i need to get one aswell my black ice stopped smelling now.

big clean for me tommorow ready for sunday

Love it

came up really well dude! lookin forward to seein it tommoro

Looks super clean!

i tried cleaning my car quickly today at 3 or 4 but it turned to ice straight away haha so couldn't clean it proply but its dirty again going for a 3 hours round trip for my dad

That blue bucket looks exactly the same as the bin in my bedroom lol
Clean though, which is nice

Good bit of cleaning their mate although I'd leave the Fair Liquid out to be honest, won't really be adding any benefit and will strip back any kind of protection you put down.

Otherwise though, looks very tidy.

^^ Cheers mate. Yeah that was the plan to strip it right back and get rid of all the shite/silicon etc, and start again. Tbh, it's ok to use if your going to layer it back up, i.e I added a coat of polish and two of wax. Usually use Meg's Gold class shampoo though

shaunmc: That was the bin from my room

We have the same bin in our place as you're '2nd bucket'! lol

If you're polishing mate, you wouldn't need to strip back anything as the polish will remove anything on their.

If you're not big into your detailing but like a clean car, try and get some Collinite 476 wax. Only needs to be done every 4-6 months.

much better lol quick question whats with the fairy up washing liquid??

Looks lovely pea, but its filthy again

Spot on mate, nice bot of gear too minus whats been said (Its acidic and damges paint if used all the time, you seen what it does to your skin? lol)

If your after a soapy sudd wash try some megs gold class, easy to get hold off and seems to be what your after

Ohh and the car looks lovely too.

Lol as said in my post before, I wanted to strip down all shit/ wax/ silicon off my car in one, so a bit of Fairy helped to degrese. I do use Meg's Goldclass all the time usually. Plus it leaves my hands Fairy soft lol

On another note, im suprised how well the 2 bucket method works. Shit water in one, clean soap in the other at the end .

Toby: I know, it's black again already

Bring on the summer! Clean cars last that little bit longer

Pea you dirty bitch! you forgot the door shuts! its still dirty in the pics haha!!

top man for taking the plates off though, i'd never be arsed to do that!

when using the two bucket method, did you notice how much more dirt you see coming off your car?
first time i used the method i was shocked haha!!

your a brave man venturing outside to get wet at this time of the year in the uk

lol yeh i noticed the door sills too haha

Looking sweeeeeet! But fairy liquid...tut tut lol

Wish my car has that low

In my defense, I cleaned the inside before I did the outside so the picture was taken before

F**k Black ice

S'all bout the traffic light

The traffic light reminds of going in a cab when I was a bout 6 years old and wondering what the hell it was! lol

what is the traffic light? :S

Looks really nice when clean, love the camber on the rear aswell.
