good place to look for the kit you need , i use Meguiars Super Degreaser and it works well large tube works out very cost effective if you plan on keeping it too clean lol


have a read of PB site, he has some really good guides

millsy, i basically used some poorboys whitewall cleaner/degreaser (diluted), an old toothbrush and lots of elbow grease. i put the degreaser solution on a trigger spray bottle and just wiped of the excess that didnt drain away to achieve this:-



you can spend lots of ££'s on products, but the only good safe way is graft IMHO.
didnt use a hose, just a trigger bottle of clean water to rinse

ps: you can gloss it over after with some nice products, if needs be
