Fez cleaning

Post by Dizzle »

Hi all,

just wanted to know what you guys think when it comes to cleaning your cars?

i saw the snow foam lance, pictures and video and it looks awesome plus i have use of a pressure washer so def gone get that when I'm paid!...... i take it its worth it?

also my dad being old school always tells me to use a chamois when cleaning/ drying the car but i hate this process as it seems to take forever.
what are your thoughts on the chamois or is there anything you prefer to use at this stage which makes it easier/ quicker. anything in particular that stands out?

i clean my car twice a week at the mo cos the roads have so much salt on and any dirt shows up on the panther black paint.

as my car is only 2 weeks old is there any need to polish it or wax it?

any input is much appreciated

Use the maguires drying towel, much better then a chamois.

As long as the paints cured you can polish and wax it.

Monza had a bogoff offer on their yellow MF towels a few weeks ago. Really good. If youre not a member you should join Detailing World forums. Great place for advise.
