Thanks for the suggestions guys. I've purchased the items and they should be arriving tomorrow/Saturday. Looking forward to giving them a go. What I want to try and really get is it looking nice and shiny.
 
lunchtime wash - rinse / snowfoam / rinse / 2 bucket method with carpro reset. First time handwashing this car, so first time I've got to see the paint right up close...... paint correction inbound!!!!!

Love the 4S always had the fatter back end. My mate had an early 2004 think it was which I think if memory serves had the facelift... can't remember now. Not actually a Porsche fan but they do look great in this spec! nice man

The 4s has the same back end as the s and carrera. The turbo is the version that has wider track.

996 4S - the shape before the one I have, is what your most likely thinking of here :) Lovely cars!

997 4 and 4S are about an inch wider on the rear hips than the Carrera and Carrera S - it is noticable at certain angles

He is more than likely thinking of the 996 4S which was turbo wide arch and had that sexy 993 esque ass.

993 ftw, love those!
 
Weather forecast looks good tomorrow.. anyone else looking forward to getting the sahara sand off, my car looks terrible !!
Also got a couple of new products to try out..
 
Used polar blast snowfoam today for the first time after I got some in the Halfords 3 for 2 offer with an xmas voucher.

Not overly impressed.. Compared to bilt hamber auto foam it didn't clean as well and left more mess.. My drive was white all day..
5l of it to get rid of now.. Ordering more BH tomorrow

Still loving the Garage Therapy 2 Sigma though..awesome gloss and shine..
 
going to have to give that Optimum No Rinse a go (Waterless wash)

id like something for more heavily soiled car too

any ideas ?
maybe something for a foam cannon ?
 
Anyone else get lots of strange looks from people when you use snowfoam.
It's great this time of year when you don't want to do a contract clean.
 
yes get some very strange looks and smiles sometimes.. it went everywhere yesterday .. to be fair I've never seen anyone else using it so it maybe is a rare sight..
