    Yeah Andy as the others have said just make sure that the cars are well soaked before putting a mitt near them .. You'll be ok with the method you've chosen the dust if any will build up around door checks, etc when you start blasting it so be careful at bits around the edges
    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    Brian, what if I told you I didn't see a single set of eye protection all week and one of the guys was wearing Nike trainers while using the Stihl Saw?

    Great stuff, thanks for the tip. I'll head in today and get one before doing the convertible.

    Keep the MF mitt for doing the fabric hood of the convertible.

    No Maguires in Car Parts 4U. and Halfords don't stock their lambs wool mitt either. will just have to be careful.

    But the guys are back cutting away again today. I thought they had finished but obviously not. No point in washing the cars properly until they are done and gone.
