Thanks for that, can you explain your method for the bay as I always find the drying cleaning part the biggest problem!

The bay was sprayed with Megs apc, left to dwell then worked in with different sized detailing brushes, megs side lock etc. Megs de-greser was applied to specific areas that needed it, around the latch etc. This was then rinsed down with a hot power washer keeping it away from obvious areas from a distance. It was then dried with an old drying towel, just by padding it of you get me? Also used an airline to get some of the settled water out. Then I applied megs all seasons and worked in with a microfibre. Hope this helps?
