If it was here at the weekend mate you know I would have done yours too

Come on Stu you know better than that... if im in any pics then the pics become about me and my good looks. I was giving the car a chance to shine for a while whilst I jump out of the spotlight

Yes mate I should have taken a before and after shot really. I use my car daily and on the motorway so the car front wheels are normally very black with brake dust and the sides of the car and the boot are caked in road rubbish that gets kicked up. Seeing the car is actually blue after that is good. Spent a long time on the wheels thought. After washing them I used wonder wheels to get the brake dust/tar bits off the corners of the alloy spokes then rewashed the wheels again to ensure all the wonder wheels was off. After that I then put some car polish on them and left it on 10 mins or so then took it off. Doing this seems to make them clean a lot easier and keeps them in good nick. Ideally they could do with refurbing because the previous owner didnt know the difference between a kerb and a road but theyre good enough for me for now..

After washing the car twice, drying it and getting rid of the fly engraved bodies on the bonnet and then polishing it that was enough for the afternoon for me. Dont want to start getting fit and showing you lot up
... Besides what do you normally put on yours after polishing it? All the polish I use seems to leave it looking really nice. If I need to tart it up quickly I can give it a quick wash and use meguiars ultimate detailer to clean it off and leave it squeaky clean.. Oh also used autosol on the exhaust to make it come up really nicely. Much better than meguiars exhaust cleaning stuff that ive got..
