Looks really nice man  :shocked:

What poorboys kit you use?

thanks - I started with Poorboy's wash soap n suds using a lambs wool mitt and 2 bucket method, towel dried then PB Black hole glaze + PB EX-P sealant + PB natty's blue paste wax. PB wheel sealant + Autosol for the tailpipes, also all the relevant applicator pads and micro fibre towels and time and effort. It's dirty again now so I will see how easy it is to clean with all those layers under the dirt.

just did the golf today - PB diamond white, PB EX-P and PB nattys paste wax. then wipe down and dust with PB spray and wipe.

didnt get any pictures but will take some next time the cars out.

also washed the clio and gave it a go over with spray and gloss. comes up pretty good. EX-P makes all the difference on a white car i reckon.









did the altea yesterday as the wife drove through a load of fresh tar and chippings. SRP and a coat of megs tech wax 2.0. car came up pretty good - black magic pearl is a really good colour when the sun it out. find the tech wax really dusty though and the megs stuff always streaks i find. got loads to use up from xmas presents etc.


arms are dropping off now.

This is why mine rarely gets cleaned sadly as im spending all my spare time trying to clear out my workshop garages so I can sell it and build another gararge at home to get all the cars indoors on a night.
