Lupo-Joe Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Well guys sorry for the delay but after totting up results I've made a video for you on the base wash routine I use week in week out. All products are named in the description of the video. As you will have guessed, dependant on times of the year and time I have available I will do more to the car. Hopefully this gives you a good insight to my basic car cleaning. Any future ideas would be great. Also feel free to pm me any questions. Thanks as always, Joe.

Joti Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) Before viewing this, I remember reading previously that Joe spent about 1.5 hours to clean 2 wheels.........So I popped out and bought a beanbag and a large bag of popcorn before settling down for the experience. BTW Joe, great video, but your OCD did not pick up that you mis-spelt "Finished" at 06:38 Edited March 16, 2013 by Joti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sorry I'm one of these dyslexic kids On other news....I had my release bearing changed today by a pal. Unfortunately it didn't fix the issue so now I will save up and hunt for a box. However every cloud has a silver lining, and whilst the car was in the air I wash polished and wax the under side, here's a poor phone picture: Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
