Cracking car, and we'll looked after. Same colour as mine. Can I ask what cleaning products you use?

Cracking car, and we'll looked after. Same colour as mine. Can I ask what cleaning products you use?

Hi and thanks for the nice comments.  I think Velvet Green springs to mind (its quite a dark green, slight metallic fleck) but somebody has mentioned Jungle Green ?

I always use the Autoglym products.  I have tried a few of the other waxes, but the Autogym stuff is easy to use, and very forgiving if you accidentally get a bit on the plastic trim.  The order of the process, if I have a few hours is:

  • Pre wet and then wash with Autoglym Pressure Washer additive (lance on gentle ! and foam)
  • Wash with a soft  wash Mitt , NEVER USE A SPONGE  >:( (You may as well use a Pan Scourer !!!)
  • 2nd Wash with Bucket warm water and 2nd mitt with Autoglym Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner.  The green stuff.  Smells great !  :y
  • Rinse and Chamois dry
  • Ideally leave for 24hrs to fully dry
  • Autoglym Super Resin Polish - Wax on, in cool shade.  Can normally apply to all panels, before then leaving for 30 mins before polishing back off - use plenty of soft mits, saving one for final polish
  • Then Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection.  This is more of a liquid (bit like RainX) but again same process as above as with Polish
  • Wheels I often, when cleaned, apply the super resin polish as well
  • Tyres - Apply the Autoglym Instant Tyre Dressing - Ideally leaving overnight - Again this smells nice  :y
  • Black Plastic Trims - Only for MFL !! :D - I use a Silicon Based Tyre Dressing - Occasionally used on Tyres, but prefer the Autoglym Instant Tyre Dressing as easier

Then sit back and enjoy, putting away in Garage before it rains ! ;D

;D ;D I seemed to recall Velvet Green.  It can appear quite dark in the shade, but when light catches it reminds me of a deep dark perlescent British Racing Green  :y
