How Much Do You Wash Your Car And How Far Do You Go

[corsa]

The difference in colour of the car after doing that lot is amazing, its a mixture of haveing the time and the right products but most of all knowing the process :-)

Would love to be brave enough to try machine polishing as the 350z old benefit greatly from it.

I've used clay on mine. The entire car! Bit of a ball ache and only need to do it rarely, but gets almost everything off.

thinking of geting another clay kit . thougb sure i ran.out of the application spray and still have a bar left of mcguires clay bar. anyone used anything else as an applicator spray to go with the clay bar or just stuck with water? or soapy water from car shampoo?

i like it too, think i need a new one soon. I would recommend it Paul

There are a few options, try regular. £11 delivered on ebay and water is free. Just pick up a garden skooshy out the Asda garden aisle.

Chemical guys sell good ones for 12 quid, I ha e an autoglym kit which was 62.00 and the cheap one is better

I've got a flimsy in-line detergent bottle that I put the shampoo in which kinda works, but would be interested to hear any recommendations for a half decent, but not too expensive, snowfoam bottle/lance and what snowfoam product to use?

There's a group buy over on S/N for proper foam lances at £40, plus options for buying lance and snowfoams.

Have the flimsy bottle too, but doesn't put it on very thick and it just runs off quickly, so thinking I'll go for one on the group buy.

Have a 20litre container of snowfoam already, spotted the AutoSmart delivery van at a petrol station one day, and asked the guy if I could buy one, £20. Not sure if it was legit though, wasn't given a receipt

Polished bliss did them for around that price

Very good too

Like some of the others on here, I just used water. Seems to work fine, but there maybe better options.
