The colour's so prominent that it's turned your grass different colours   :o

That's 'dangle berries'!  You've really got 3 Jags!  ;D

Maybe 7, one for each day of the week?  ::)

I like the one finished in Astra estate green best. :y

The grass changes colour to match the car. Very cool.

I know that plenty of you lazy bastards are happy to pay a bunch of 'illegals'  £5 to run a gritty sponge over your car. I'm not. :D

So in true Dunkirk spirit I braved the cold and did it myself. ;)

I enjoyed a well deserved bottle of San Miguel for my trouble. :)

It was all going well till you mentioned San Miguel. Tourists beer! The Spanish drink Cruzcampo. I do agree it is cold and apparently going to get colder next week. Nowt between Lincolnshire and the Arctic.........

About three and a half decades ago I spent a week in a real shithole of a hotel in Torremolinos. Everyone came down with food poisoning and the smell of raw sewage (because the bogs were all blocked) was overwhelming.

So...it was San Miguel for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. :y

It's not rocket science.

Pressure wash the whole car to get rid of any 'welded on' crud. I then mix some Meguiar's car wash with water in a bucket.

Pressure wash the car again and then dry with an assortment of soft scratch free cloths.

No waxing.........no polishing.......and as for bars of clay forget it.

Done and dusted in less time than it takes STMO to walk the whippet and then watch fascinated while it takes a 'runny dump' :y

Not a bucket to be seen with my method.

Gentle rinse with the pressure washer, no blasting the dirt into the paint.

Use the snow foam with the lance attachment and leave for 15 minutes.

Gentle rinse again.

Use Meguiars NXT generation car wash with lance attachment and wash with lambs wool mit.

Gentle rinse again and dry with drying towel  :y

I use Bilt Hamber finis wax every other wash  ;)

You should go and get your car washed in Romania then, as they don't wear bras there!  :-*
