Inside window clean Auto Glym Glass cleaner, Interior Plastic Leather and Vynial care(Sorry spelling), Hover interior.

Rinse Exterior leather off, allow thorough dry wipe door shuts Halfprds shampoo, Tar Remover Auto Glym wash and rinse off the leather lower parts of car.

Apply Polish i use super resin Auto Glym remove if feeling good then apply Extra Gloss protection also Auto glym leave for 60 mins then remove, next clean all exterior glass Auto Glym class Cleaner this is the cream not the spray far better results.

The the black Auto Glym Bumper Care.

Takes me a while but comes up a treat.

Youve done a bloody good job there! I normally spend a couple of hours, but then I either take it for a drive and it starts getting dirty again or it rains the day after, so Im screwed either way! I need to move to America!

I alos use the autoglym polish on the windows and that goes down a treat!

tyres and bumper is a turtle wax tyre gel, interior gonna just wipe it down from now on, because with the bright sun the dash is shining in the windscreen, nealy blinds me!

WD40 for the engine, thast seems to work quite well!

Do you lot ever take the wheels off and give the arches a good clean?

I use shoe polish on the tyres, seems to keep them looking black longer than other tyre cleaners, but you wont get that wet look with shoe polish..but keep trying different products till you get one youre happy with...
