I did attend S&S but to be honest a severe case of CBA (Canny Be Ar5ed) came over me and the last thing I wanted to do was clean my car.

I did however finish work early on Monday so set to it

1st Colour restorer, I recon it could almost be an Autoart candidate

It isn't fancy stuff, its just blue T Cut

I then started to apply the Autoglym Ultra Deep Shine polish. I got half of it on and had just started to buff tit off when loads of water just fell out of the sky without warning. It takes 17 seconds to get the roof up and in that 17 seconds I got absolutely soaked, obviously, so did the car. (with loads of polish still on)

Still, with just the T Cut, I recon the beading looks ok.

Detailers always show you 50/50 shots, here's one with a difference

Well, the rain eventually went off and I dried the car off and kept going. That AG stuff is murder to come off when even slightly damp, it took ages. Still, get it off I did, polished the other side and then started on my most recent buy, I got some Pete's 53 wax. It goes on easy. I waxed the whole car and left it on while I set about the interior

Clean clean clean

Some finished shots of the exterior

Mandatory reflection shots

Right.............where's my prize ????? (posted this just for a laugh)
