_Matt_ 42 Report post Posted July 5, 2010 Ooooh shiny Having the most anal car-detailer for a brother actually has an upside! I didn't realize he was so anal about it, showing up with 26 micro-fiber towels, each for a different purpose "I don't know why people don't look after their bloody cars" he said while buffering the polish what a sunday haha.

Guest Simon* Report post Posted July 5, 2010 I'm worried about where he keeps his clay bar when he's not using it too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dyl 4 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 Didn't see this one. You have it looking great mate. I used to have a red E36 M3. You'll need to maintain the red hard out but it's worth it and people really notice red when it pops!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_Matt_ 42 Report post Posted July 9, 2010 (edited) basically, follow these steps painfully slowly and carefully... wash (standard car wash) -> dry (lint free towels) -> run clay over entire car with soap and water (slow but worth it) -> rinse -> polish -> buffer (we hand buffered) -> wax -> buffer it took 2 of us 5 hours so it's an indication of how detailed u should be next time you wash go over the car with detailer. this stuff : Edited July 9, 2010 by _Matt_ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
