If you don't have the time to keep it 100%, very careful washing and Poor Boys Black Hole is your friend for a quick (if not long lasting) fix.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

Best looking black car I've seen, I've only ever had one black car (Bora 1.8T 180) back in the day and it was so hard to keep nice. It showed every little imperfection. Would never own another but your's makes me think again. I know I just couldn't keep as nice yours!

Thanks very much Rob. :smiley:  Black isn’t for everyone but I love it and looking after it.

Great work Jim.  :cool:  Bet the owner was chuffed to bits with the result.

A free weekend so managed to give the GTI a quick wash today. Need to get a sealant on but paint is looking good still although want to get the Flex rotary on it first. Just need some spare time...  :huh:

Snowfoam, hand wash (The G Wash is so nice to use!), dry and and a coat of Aquawax plus quick tidy inside. Got the maintenance wash down to just over an hour and certainly nice doing a normal sized car! Last 2 jobs have been a Velar and RR Autobiography, both pretty big  :grin:

^^ Looking great there Jim :smiley: I rather like G Wash too, nice smell and feels rather luxurious if a car shampoo can :laugh:
