I have to agree there is nothing like spending a few hours outside giving your car a decent clean. Its that moment you step back to look at it and smile or you go out for a drive and park up then walk back to it just grinning :)

However doing it in the freezing cold or direct sunlight is no fun.

Good work Stu.

I used this stuff on the Sierra, from cavity sealer to wax. Love it...

Dinitrol is excellent and aerosols are superb for small applications too. It's a hugely satisfying job, if somewhat messy. Dinitrol would have tripled this guys bill by the way.......

Iam in the "only if i have to" club when it comes to washing the car as i really don't like doing it , so i haven't tried detailing . I can appreciate a properly cleaned car and wonder why i cannot stand doing it , i guess iam more into wielding spanners than a chamois . You made a nice job of those cars Stu and i cannot lie and say i've never stood back a thought my car looked better after a clean . Pete

No Pete, you're not alone! Cars are for driving, right? :biggrinjester:
