    Looks good.

    A wee tip for you next time you snow foam it needs to be thicker i.e. more foamy/thicker so that it sticks to the car better allowing it do it's job better.

    what ratio did you use?

    I always think there is a line in Detailing, There is the Detail that takes countless hours and days and then there is what I do probably much like yourself, put in a shift, use the right stuff and get good results that I’m very happy with.

    Mind on a good day I can take four or five hours to wash, polish, glaze and seal but that is just a few times in the year. After that its Wax a couple of times and keeping the wheels and glass clean. Only down side is you get so used to the car you find all the wee stine chips etc.


    Anyway the Car looks fantastic and at the very least your MiniScotland sticker is on right you should see my effort…
    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m a paid up member of the cleaning brigade. I like nothing better than out the front cleaning the car, just wish it would stay the way it looked when I have finished a bit longer....
