Problem with having a Candy White car..
dnLcal:
Ive had my CW Ed30 for about 2-3 months now and dont think ive ever cleaned something so much.
I know im taking pride in it because its the nicest car ive had, but it seems every time i drive it it comes back filthy (bit of an overstatement).
Ive just cleaned it and used Auto Glym Super Resin Polish and Auto Glym Extra Gloss Protection. im hoping this crates a barrier to stop crap from sticking.
If not im sure you guys are in the know of what products to use.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers.
Cal

Have a read of the stickies above.
White is like black - both are lovely when clean but are filthy if you so much as cough at them!
Ideally, the first detail should be done professionally. That way, you can just top up the finish with a wash, dry and quick wax or quick detailer.

its a myth just wash it i had loads of cars in different colours and they all need cleaned get a grip
Eccie:
I like to keep my CW clean and tidy.
What I try and do is hose it down on the drive before it gets put to bed in the garage :wink: especially if it’s been out in the rain or on damp roads and it’s still wet. I find that it washes a lot of the muck off, and then it doesn’t dry and stick on it overnight.
I appreciate that it’s not feasible for everyone to do this, but I can :P and I find it helps a lot, we live up a dirt track so that makes it worse (the neighbours must think I’m mad, hosing a car down in the rain)
Truckie:
Agree with the " wash down theory" It definitely helps :happy2:
The road to my work is minging for 8 months of the year and dirty for the remaining months lol. I try and keep on top of mines but a good quality wax helps, as the dirt will run off with the rinse you do after parking up.
Maybe try a wax that is known for really good beading, i know that helps me as most of the dirt on the roads i use is wet and muddy...mixed with the usual salt :fighting:
I get nothing but abuse for cleaning my car non stop but its my pride and joy! :signLOL:
cue picture whorring ahoy!!!
