Hmmm Shiny.....

Featured Replies

Spent a good 8 hours detailing my little tractor on Friday, inside and out, top to bottom. Bloody tiring but worth the effort I think.

Meguiars DC1 all over.

Wash and rinse again.

Meguiars DC2 polish all over.

Meguairs NXT tech wax all over, (twice)

Back to black Gel on the plastic bits.

Autoglym wheel cleaner and instant tyre dressing.

Unbranded (trade) engine bay cleaner.

Autoglym glass polish.

Several gallons of elbow grease.

Next time I've got a whole day free...... And you can afford me! ;)

No seriously... I'm not usually that anal about my paint care but seeing as the flats next to us are being demolished soon I thought a good coat of wax would make it wasier to keep clean once the innevitable building dust arrives.

Glad you like it though. :thumbup:

Wax will not protect it from falling bricks!

True enough. I'm just hoping that as the flats are around 100 metres away I'll only be troubled with dust rather than falling masonary!

Here's hoping. :eek:
