Title: Quick Clean & Jet Seal of my Edition 30
Post by: Hendo on February 10, 2011, 08:18:08 pm

I'm ashamed to say it but this is the first time I have cleaned the car properly since I got it!

The car was a right mess but I never took any photo's before I started. :sad1:

Anyway I sprayed the car with a degresser and rinsed off with a power washer.  Then came the snow foam made up of MEGUIAR'S APC and MEGUIAR'S HYPER WASH.

I then clayed the whole car to rid of all the crap that wouldn't come off with a wash.  I never managed to get it as clean as I would have like as I was pushed for time.

I then just gave the car a good going over with Chemical Guys Jetseal 109 and buffed off by hand.  I also gave the alloys a quick clean and dressed the tyres.

The little lad was asking for money!!  The repone he got is what may have shocked him.

I would normally glaze the car before Seal but I only had 3 hours to do all the cleaning!

Keep up the effort regularly and you'll soon bring down that cleaning time.

Looks awesome. In the right light, CW looks amazing. I prefer it looking warm rather than cold/blue.
