Just walked to the post box, and counted 23 cars parked down the street at work. It's been raining on and off all afternoon and mine was the only one with beads of water on it.

I admit that I can be a bit obcesive when it comes to car cleaning, but you'd think more people would make a bit of an effort.

hey mate,
i'm torn with the beads on the car thing... i'm loving the look of mine after she dam well got it at weekend but alas, beads on the car means roof can't come down
gaz started me on some maguiars(spelt wrong i know lol)
and now john dub has kindly sent me some dodo juice so when the bloody rain decides its tormented me enough she is gonna get it again and finish her with the juice.... can't wait
anyway, strop over..... i know what you mean bout the beads
chow for now

The dodo will bead good and proper. I used to use zymol concourse at £164, bead city.

Beadings good as it means there's a waterproof coat between outside world and paint. This prtects the paint from traffic film and uv radiation which oxidises and weakends the paint.

Keeps you fit applying it too.


Do a panel at a time left to right straight strokes. Wipe off north sounth and leave for 4 hours. Then buff circular.

On the bonnet, split into 3. don't let it harden.

If you do get stuck, the only megs product worth it's cash is Ultimate Quik Detailer. And to wash your car, use Zymol Auto Wash from Halfords. Oils are in it, detergents, but no added wax products. Thats the key. Just wash it, rinse and dry with a sonus waffle weave cloth or similar.

If you get stuck, gaz as my number and give us a ring and i'll advise.

"hmmm, might start this as a business"

You should do JD.

The best job in the world is the one you enjoy doing.
