Advice for washing my Mk7 GTI

[Bingham67]

Cheers guys for info but another question received the Autosmart Duet Duo on the bottle it says dilute with up to 250 parts water any idea in real world what that means?

[AaronMc]

Its just a measurement for diluting it to water. Just pour a little bit in the bucket and fill it up, if its way to soapy, just use less next time. Or you can try doing 2 caps every wash.

Whats a good cleaner for the windscreen and also the inside of the car ie dashboard what should i use to clean the sat nav screen?

Leather seats i read them Dr leather wipes are good?

Dodo Juice Clearly Menthol or Angel Wax Glass cleaner.  For leather try Angle Wax leather or Gliptone.

Thanks im getting brown marks after i wash car using method AaronMc posted i got all the stuff now it getting annoying im washing and rinsing etc but specs of brown circles pop up all over car when look close up.

The brown spots could well be fallout picked up in transit. It's quite common on cars that travel on a train. With them still being there, shows how poorly the dealers prepare new cars. A good soak with something like IronX should sort it out, but you will need to start all over again with your protection layers.

Not sure what the brown marks are unless as said they are spots of Tar etc?

Unless your water is really dirty that your washing it with, making it look brown and streaky? The 2 bucket method should eiminate this though.

I clean the windscreen/windows regular with Autosmart Glass Clear, but if you protect it with something like G Techniq's range, then it will repel water at speeds above 30MPH, and help keep it clean.

I just use Poorboys Natural Look Dressing for interior plastics etc, and give the nav screen a wipe over with the same cloth once its dried up a bit. Always works wonders!

Leather wipes are ok, but the Gliptone kit is good also, but thats more if the leather is dirty and needs cleaning, then protecting.
