Thats a Halfrauds sales technique in action
No more blemishes in your wallet, so clean you could almost see through it

By the way, that Golf is lookin sweet

You want someone to teach you how to clean a car? Are you ripping the piss?

so your telling me the bucket and sponge is the answer? maybe try that and maybe a drop of fairy for suds..

 

[Tigger 172]

Think this is another one of THOSE threads

 

[skiman_1]

I use the odd bit of polish, but a bucket and sponge, yes...

Maybe polish it once every 2/3 weeks but definately no detailing.. no need! and as for detailing a new car, wtf is the point its brand fooking new anyway.

Horses for courses. Crudely washing your car with a bucket and sponge WILL eventually degrade the finish of your paintwork. Some people care about that, some dont.
