Default Waxed the car today

Had quite a session on the car today, washed and chamoied it yesterday, but it rained over night, so another wash and chamois then attacked it with some Autogleam High Gloss Wax....it says it removes slight swriling and gives a good deep shine...

Very impressed...good reflection







oohh you can see my collection of cleaning materials in the reflection...car looks absolutley ace...

Alot of elbow grease but worth it..soaking my arms in a bucket of ice now to cool them down..

looks good mate.

do yourself a favour though, throw the chamois away and get a decent quality drying towel!!!

you'll dry the car in one go, with out any smears and the least amount of contact on the paint.

trust me, you wont look back !!!

i even use a very tiny bit of detailer on the wet paint too prior to drying

keep up the good work....
