Thank you! I was trying to remember Biobrisk. It's an excellent enzyme cleaner that kills odours.

Hoping weather stays decent Friday so I can clean the mrs car properly, really need to clean the seats, darn kids.
have bought a decent seat brush thing, autolygm interior shampoo and got the Titan wet and dry vac ready.

As above took about two hours to do a full interior sort.
Which is apparently enough to flatten the battery on a 22 plate car.
So it's not on charge. In the plus side, it looks better inside that when we got it new.
Ran out of energy /time to do the exterior.

Unlike last weekend, some decent weather this weekend. Might do my car too tomorrow. Now that we're going into autumn, got to use these small windows of good weather opportunities before the heavens open.

I've given up on keeping mine clean (outside). The farmer is out cutting up the fields and ploughing all around us and up and down the road with wagons etc. The dust is crazy. You come out next day and the car is covered. I clean the glass daily but even that is hard if it is sunny, for example.

Did my first ever collinite beadcoat over the weekend.
This stuff is simply amazing.
Did my usual 2 stage polish using chemical guys orange pad/meg 105 followed by a chemical guys green pad/chemical guys v36.
Then put the beadcoat on. Says it lasts 6 months but even if I apply it once every 3 months it only takes 30 mins to apply all over the car. Really happy with the product.

Looks great. I've been using Collinite Insulator Speed Wax last couple of washes. Paired with the Gyeon Wet Coat, it works really well, and both products take no time at all to apply which makes me happy lol.Did my first ever collinite beadcoat over the weekend.

Looking at getting the car machine polished and new ceramic coating. Anyone Midlands based have recommendations for a reputable person to do this please
Is Lowestoft to far for you to travel to, there is a excellent detailer based there called Flamboyant who I travel from the south coast to form my cars. He's a good guy as well https://www.facebook.com/flamboyantdetails/?locale=en_GBLooking at getting the car machine polished and new ceramic coating.

it's 4 hours away so would need an overnight stay if I travelled there. I'll add him to the list
More than overnight if you want him to do a full professional detail. We used to stay at the wherry for a couple of nights, but we also visit my partner's family whilst there.
