    try
    www.cleanandshiney.co.uk (Quote detailingworld for 10% discount)
    or
    www.seriousperformance.co.uk (free postage + 10% discount paying by cheque)

    You will need to buy a bottle to put the wheel brightner in (you can get these from the meguiars site). It is basically a 5l bottle that you add to the wee bottle and top up with water. I think it is around 15 pounds but depending on dillution ratio's it lasts a long time. Ive had mine over a year and it still aint finished.

    Right. Here is a black one now . My Boss is selling his MINI, so I had to detail it today. It has been sitting for a while not being used and it had all sorts stuck to it.

    Firstly the car was washed and clayed (Sonus green clay is crap for summer, it went all gooey btw) Then the car was treated with meguiars #80 speed glaze. The car was then treated with meguiars #7 show car glaze (to bring a bit of deeper shine) then treated with blackfire extra gloss polish. This was then sealed with Klasse extra gloss glaze, then #16 mirror shine wax.

    The windows were polished and the exterior trim treated with autoglym. The engine bay was degreased and treated.

    The interior was hoovered and the carpets extracted, the plastics were polished and leather treated.

    Heres the befores



    Yes... that is a massive spider




    The middles


    The afters

    we like flakes





    oooo Shiney





    Me in the paint


    Any questions about anything ive done give me a shout and ill try and explain what i did
