406 Coupe - Cleaned

cloudy · 20 Jul 2008 at 18:37

Have just spent a few hours cleaning up my coupe, it was looking a bit sorry.

First a rinse then, washed with Autoglym Shampoo & Conditioner, using the two bucket method. Rinsed again and dried with a MF cloth. Stage 1 (Paint cleaner) and stage 3 (Carnuba wax) of the meg's 3 stage system. Wheels blackened with turtlewax wet and black spray.
I really need to give her a clay bar too...

I forgot to take a 'before' pic but here it is yesterday nestled behind my car project

After, Sorry about the poor quality of the pics its from a phone camera, it looks better in the flesh! (I know everyone says that!)
