Re: just took some pics, now its clean
Yup windolene is unreal mate, but dont get it on the windscreen Like ididGary406 wrote:guess what i'm polishing the 106 with

Id mix the windolene 50/50 with some car polish, it will but a clear coat on that way,
oh and dont get the windolene on the black trim is a biatch to get off,
a drop of Turps mixed with 3in1 oil or Baby oil is good at Reviving black trim and bumpers

Re: just took some pics, now its clean
Heres a pic of the last time i polished it and that was with 5 coats of Meguiars Expensive stuff,
a think the windolene is alot better and its only £2 abottle or so the Megs was £15 iirc, its done the same job as what Hard graft with clay wouid do me thinks,
all in all it took me 45mins or so to get the car looking something like iwant it,

Looks great mate. Polish is fantastic! Don't know why I expected you to have a blue 406 though! Loving the cheeky "HDi Inside" sticker being a bit of a computer nerd myself

Jetwashing your engine bay just means it will be nice and clean for the AA man when he comes to fix it
