so I spent 6 hours on it yesterday only doing the outside (bar door seals and windows) and im happy with the results  :smiley:

before.....



first was a wash with the 2 bucket method, wool mitt and Maguire's gold class shampoo, and a shammy off!!

 

then I went round the whole car with dodo juice 'lime prime' and wow I was impressed!!!



swirls on the wing...



gone!!!!





the applicator didn't go green but my fingers.....



then I started on the waxing.... dodo juice 'supernatural hybrid' very easy to apply and to buff off..... this is my first time at waxing so I hope I done it right!!!

which one is the glass???

Looking good mate. :afro:

I love SNH - Such great stuff and so easy to use!

Get those wheels cleaned, where was the bleeding shots from the de ironizer!?

I'm jealous of the black, gets such good reflection shots compared to crappy silver.

Looking great  :cool:

I used SNH for first time a couple of weeks ago on black and was mega impressed with the shine and reflections, beats all previous waxes used on that score.
