my sunday afternoon efforts
OK, so I'm the laziest polisher and a complete novice at this, my routine was;
- Wet down the paint with the hose to remove the dust
A bucket of car shampoo and a soft brush on a stick
Rinse with the hose
Dry off with a microfibre cloth
Apply Dodo Juice with my hands to 1 shaded side of the car at a time
Buff off with a microfibre cloth
Move on to the next side
Admire the results and bandage the cuts on my fingers….boy those plastics are sharp LOL
[/list:u]
Comments and suggestions welcomed
I didn't do my plastics or rubbers…..what is the best way to do them ?

The Dodo Juice is brilliant, makes your hands smell Orangey…well the orange one does…..and doesn't leave marks the black plastic or rubbers
