    First proper clean of the year



    Ran out of time/daylight as usually but covered all the basics:

    Pressure wash underneath/engine bay/door jams (carefully).
    Applied alloy cleaner.
    Wash with bucket/Hose/AG shampoo.
    Touch any stone chips/scratched alloys (a few of both these items this winter ).
    AG paint work renovator on anything serious.
    AG SRP.
    AG Bumper care on all plastics.
    AG tyre dressing, used this in engine bay also.
    AG fast glass/glass polish.
    Vacuumed inside.
    Treated Leather.

    After next wash More AG SRP then Bilt & Hamber auto-balm.

    Car now has an extra 50 bhp and handles a lot better

      Cheers dude

      I've not washed her as much as I should the last few months.
      The lack of light is PITA at the moment. I've been working nights of late and some days I don't see daylight.

      Still spring is but weeks away.

      cheers

        Very nice.

        Let me know how you get on the BH wax. I am thinking of getting some for my daily drivers...

        Cheers,

        Steve.
