i can completely understand why!
i like to get all the salt off the car. i Know our cars are incredibly robust these days, but i have a Morris Minor in the unit thats mint. If it was holding as much salt as my golf is right now, it would completely kill it! haha!

Well the sun is out now and it seems to be thawing the snow. Like I said it was real bad on the motorway. I just want to get rid of all that salt!
Im gonna do a real careful 2 bucket wash. I have just rinsed the car really well, and I'm going out with the born to be mild!
After that, I doubt i'll be getting stuck behind 3 gritters in 1 day again, so I will just use the hose/foam, until the weather gets a bit better.

Pre winter I gave the car two coats of wax and to keep things going I foam the car, wash mitt of with the 2bm then use another product while wet and dry off as this has a carnuaba content and leaves a nice glossy finish and its cheap :drinking:.
Snow melted of the car today and beading still good.
For light dirt I am fairly coming round to this ONR method
Optimum No Rinse
