yep they use strong acids and alkalines to remove grime that should not be used on paints just because its easier and quicker for them

Default Darc you lazy sod..lol

Hey Darc

I cleaned mine today....just a quick clean which took just under the hour with no attention to the wheels apart from a pressure washer on them.
Car looked good even without topup detailer so get out there and don't chance it with people you don't know...lol.

On the other hand...you can have the heater on while the others do it
It was cold out there doing the car

Talking of the Range, I bought a bottle of Instant Shine Waterless Cleaner from there, by Mantis; I know it wouldn't pass muster with some of you aficionado's but I can get the whole car done in about 30 mins without freezing me whatsits off and it looks not bad
