    Proper Car Wash!



    Check this! This is what i was on about last night.

    This car wash would normally cost you £5,000!!

    1. De-Greaser?
    (Paul uses a Citrus Degreaser for lower half of vehicle, £55 for 5 litres)

    2. Rinser?
    (Paul uses water at 35 degrees, on a jet wash)

    3. Shampoo?
    (Paul uses a PH Neutral shampoo, £65 a bucket from America)

    4. Rinsing (again)

    5. Drying?
    (Paul uses high tech microfibre blankets, no chamios leather)

    6. Wheel Cleaner?
    (Paul uses a special Wheel Gel, non-aciditic that doesn't corrode alloys, £75 for 5 litres ...uses a paint brush?!)

    7. Clay?
    (Paul uses a Clay Bar for a mirror finish, £20 a block, rubbing it straight onto the car whilst spraying water??)

    8. Rubbing Compound?
    (Paul uses an Ultra Spund Depth Gauge worth £3k, to determine how much paint he can rub off to get rid of the scratches... uses the Rubbing Compound via an electric swirler tool)

    9. Prep for Wax?
    (Paul uses something that is £35 a bottle with an applicator pad/cloth towel, then rubs it down with towels that are £16 for two towels)

    10. Wax?
    (Paul uses the £6k Canuba Wax, by hand all over the car ...lasts around 6 months)

        I saw this guy on the telly a couple of weeks ago.
        He was doing some supercar at the time.
