In anticipation of my GTD arriving this week, planned and got ready for giving it it's first wash and protection, thanks to JBirchy for his help on a few of the products.
I had a practice run on my wife's peugeot today and it's looking good - it rained afterwards and the water beading and fleeing from the paint was amazing. Her car has never been detailed, or probably even waxed - the ironx gave a purple river down the road and the clay still picked up shed loads.
The dealer isn't washing the car for me at my request, and is leaving it 'in the wraps', so hopefully I get some decent weather after pickup.
By the way, I am a novice at detailing - so if anyone is thinking of taking the plunge - go for it, products like these are dead easy to use - although it did take me 4 hours
