    the sponge on a handle was bought from Aldi excellent for getting the inside rim of the wheels.



    (fav product difficult but got to be the glass cleaner)



    Chemical Guys (fav product jetseal)



    DoDo products (fav product all of it)



    Waxes (fav product Zymol)



    General bits and bobs (fav product Poorboys)



    Cloths drying towels MF and stuff. (fav product all of it)







    Store all my MF cloths in zip tight bags to keep the dust out.




    all tucked away



    Would really like to try some of the gloss it product and the Zanio but put of by the procedures you have to go through with Zanio

    Your as bad as me, I’m going to try one of the DoDo Waxes this year for my Silver, the white one seems the one to get. People think I'm mad but I love it I can spend an afternoon in peace washing, polishing,glazing,sealing and then the next week adding wax and a few coats over the next few washes.

    Can you actually see the difference in the waxes as you have a good spread there…..using Chemical Guys - Pete's 53 Paste Wax just now or did a few coats and its still beading like mad…..I’m playing about with snow foams just now as I just got my HD lance there. Only thing that did catch my eye was one of those evil water blades…don’t like them at all.

    Best one was Carlack - Glass Sealing Kit did my car months ago and the side windows are still doing the magic. Its actually scary when it rains and the rain clears away so quick. When you do it fresh I'd say go over 50 MPH and window wipers are not needed its that good.

    well tbh Allan will do most of the waxing to the car.


    I do the all the maintaining between waxes, windows, interior and wheels exhaust all the wee bits.

    I've got it so bad that I won't use my fav MF cloths Allan just shakes his head as he thinks they are there to be used. wrong wrong wrong they are there for me to drool over and then put back away.
