Default Bank Holiday Wash & Detail

So it's was a nice day and the family was watching Frozen so I decided to give Fugly the bug a wash, liquid clay, polish and wax today then a quick Hoover and wet vac on the seats, came out not too bad

























Had some new products to use but ended up just sticking with the old faithful stuff!

Thanks for the comments....sticker above headlight was on the bonnet I picked a few weeks ago, really need to get it off....dont have anything HKS lol.

Liquid clay, it's kind of a cheat but a quick but less effective way of taking all the old cleaning products off the car, it's a really thick paste but with water to activate it, it turns into a soft smith liquid, like liquid silver and it goes on with a special pad, you then rinse it off and dry by patting it dry then are left with glass like feeling paint.

I use it in between clay baring the car as I clay bar the car every 6 months so 3 months between the clay bar I liquid clay the car just to de-contaminate it

Very nice mate, I really like the uk300 front lip. I think color coding the lip and leaving the splitter black would give the front a lower looking stance. Seen some US cars with that look

Lol I've got a whole bag of nuts and bolts to do but haven't been bothered yet lol.

Mmm that's not a bad idea Wiley, might have a play with Photoshop.

I Have no idea what the liquid clay stuff is called the label has come off and I've had it over 2 years, sorry.

Thanks for all the comments makes the effort feel appreciated
