A week in... Golf GTI

[gizzywizzy]

Only one problem with that I don't have a garage and no access to hose pipes so it would be trips back and forth with numerous buckets and even then the problem with road grit being put on the cars body.  The chap at the car wash has assured me everything is foam and that it will not scratch the car.

Nice clean sponge and a bucket.

Eh NO!!

2 buckets and a nice clean sheepskin

Ok ok calm down dears!!! I shall pop off and buy a nice new sponge and bucket tomorrow and give it a good seeing to.

Hummmm if you dont have access to a hose I dont blame you, EFFFFORT lol.

A water container from a camping/caravan accessory shop would be worthwhile, 25 litres of water without the walking up n down.

Or what about a portable pressure washer ?

well worth a read....hard work, but one seriously shiny car at the end

The ONLY way to avoid swirl marks is with a touchless wash. Period. Sponges, sheepskin mits and such like WILL eventually produce SMs, no matter how clean you think they are

True, but you can certainly delay the inevitable.

I wish I had the spare time to wash my cars by hand 

The local Polish hand car wash for me everytime.
