Title: Grit on paintwork
Post by: Trekmeister on December 22, 2015, 04:56:07 pm

Just wondering what is the best way to remove grit particles which have attached themselves to paintwork in between washes. I currently use snow foam prior to using a 2 bucket method using wool mits. Im concerned rubbing too hard will damage the paintwork over time (its a black car).

So in essence what is the best methods to use?

A lot use quick detailers inbetween washes but personally I'd just leave the car dirty until I have time to wash it safely.

Try Demon Shine muck off, available in Halfords (orange in colour) it's wax safe as well! Spray on, leave to dwell for a few minutes and wash off. Really helps with the muck build up on the back of the golf  :mad:

Just use a good snow foam and try to keep it waxed/ protected and you'll be fine, you will always put a small mark or two in but sounds like you're doing the best you can anyways.

Only use quick detailed if its just light dust or after a wash.
