You shouldn't use washing up liquid on cars because it's quite acidic so any polish wax on the car will be striped along with lacuer if it drys on it, it also was a high salt content and everyone should know why you don't want to put salt on your car :lol:
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:
