gave the old girl a clean

cleaned me car on friday so finally got round to puutin up sum pics. its not like a full detail or anythin but the process was

clean wheels with ChemEx Brickmate (its not actually a wheels cleaner but cleaner for indusrial buildings/walls, but works better than any wheel cleaner ive used)
next the car was pre-rinsed and sprayed with Concept TFR and then washed with ChemEx wash and wax using the 2 bucket method, couldnt believe how dirty the water was
dried off and then waxed with Farecla Waxtop, which gave it a good shine and filled some small swirls windows cleaned using AG glass polish and all the black with AG bumper care, finally everything buffed using microfibe cloths and tyres dressed with Concept Contour tyre dressing. not the usual stuff to use but its all i got at work till i have a spree at Elite for new products :)

and the after pics:







hope you like
