Detailing
So if you didn't already know I am very OCD when it comes to cleaning the car
so thought id share my car cleaning collection and see what others use
my collection :
Wash - Chemical Guys Mr pink Snow foam then jet wash after
Clay - DoDo juice born slippy lube with Meguiars 200g clay bar
Polish - Auto glym super resin
Pre wax cleaner - DoDo juice lime prime lite or auto glym paint renovator
Glaze - poorboys white diamond
sealant - Auto glym extra gloss protection
Wax - poorboys white diamond paste
that all just for the paint wor using a silverline Rotary polisher
Then the wheels get done spending 2hour each wheel
Chemical guys diablo Gel to wash/clean then
Chemical guys wheel guard wax to seal them and protect from road grime and brake dust
Then I move on to the interior
Seat - auto brite Fab
dash - chemical guys V.R.P Dressing
glass inside and out - Auto glym glass cleaner
Then every other day I give the car a once over with Chemical guys Synthetic Quick Detailer or Poorboys QD+
Now let me see your list of products

Re: Detailing
Fairy liquid is horrible for paint
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway
