saw this out on a bike ride yesterday... whole bunch of nice things drove past in convoy https://imgur.com/gallery/GrzKAzi

agreed.. i work a desk job so its nice to do something manual :-)

""The new drying towel is the star of the show though, just awesome, my old one was good but this is like some kind of witchcraft."" I need a new one, got a link @V_R ?

I've used a clay mitt gently a couple of times on my car now and never machine polished. Not caused any issues that I can see.

Blimmin idiots... Wanted to go food shopping at Tesco a couple of hours ago.. But no, chaos as people queued to get fuel blocking up the entrance.. So turned around and went elsewhere.. I've got enough fuel to last till about Thursday, hopefully things will have calmed down by then.

I feel your pain Fox.. I'm ready for a change on my 65 plate f10, especially as I run it without warranty and got hit with a big bill this week (less than extended warranty would have costed though over the last 3 years) But like you say not prepared to pay current asking prices on a g30, so...

Just apply to microfibre cloth, wipe over the tar spots, leave it for a few minutes, wipe tar spots off with another microfibre, rinse areas with hydroshot it is more accurate than other spray on tar removers as you can really just target the areas needed.. you can't really do any harm to your...

@bainbridge, you might be happy with Fairy but there are proper car products to strip wax and sealants that I suspect will do a far better job... Checkout Garage Therapy Decon Shampoo for starters... Cheers

I have an autobrite Lance and with 100ml polar blast to 500ml water it gives thick shaving foam consistency if I want it to.. I dial it back otherwise it sits on the drive for far too long. Not actually overly impressed with polar blast for cleaning ability, looking forward to getting it...

2015 bmw f10 Very Annoying excessive wind noise from front driver side window.. All the seals seem fine though When outside temperatures are hot, like this week, a clunking noise from the front of the car at slow speeds even when driving on flat smooth tarmac

Checkout garage therapy wheel shampoo.. Has a bit more bite than your normal shampoo but not as harsh as a wheel cleaner... Since I've started using it I've not had to use anything stronger like Bilt hamber

I've bought before and done it the way you are thinking of OP, that was nearly 20 years ago though. Would I do it again now... yes probably for the right car..

yes seen good reviews on that 303 Graphene... BennyC you might want to also consider Garage Therapy 3 CS, plenty of youtube reviews on it and highly rated.

I can't say I've been overly impressed with the Autoglym polar blast (and I've got 5l of it to get through! ) . It has noticeably less cleaning power that bilt hamber in my opinion Good work on the mini and the caravan..

No not tried and I wouldn't either... IMO you really want to make sure all the snowfoam is properly off and doesn't leave any residue behind..
