Decided to bath my bean

[ThomasBrentnall]

So it's not been cleaned for about 3 1/2 weeks and has covered about 1000 miles in that time. I've been putting off doing it for ages but it needed doing.

This was only a quick wash and hoover as I plan to give the car a proper clay polish and wax this weekend at my dads new unit, so I wasn't too bothered about the finish. I just wanted to shift some crap of it!

Anyway I'll let the pictures do the talking. They're only phone quality as I don't have a proper camera.

I then got the snow foam out:

I then rinsed the snow foam off. Still lots of dirt though!

I thought mine was dirty lol! Would you recommend the snow foam? I've never used it.

Hopefully get chance to wash mine tomorrow so it's nice and shiny for Sunday

Yes mate, i wouldnt wash my car without using snowfoam 1st, after a good snow and rinse, the car is almost dirt free, so when you come to wash it you are wiping less dirt particles around which causes swirls/scratches.

I was hoping this thread delivered something else, nice car though

I'll bring you some to the meet if you want as I have 25 liters and will never use the stuff. You then just need to buy a lance

This was sort of a pre-wash for mine, to make it easier on Saturday. Oh I am also picking a decat up from Scorpion tomorrow night as well It was too cheap to turn it down

Yeah pretty much this! It's well worth it!

Thank you! Pictures are only from my phone Need to get myself a good camera when I can afford to.

Currently it's a scorpion center section and then a custom rear back box. No one seems to know what it is :S I will get some pictures when the decat is getting fitted. It sounds really nice though!

Im the same with the camera situation mate, its hard to show the cars full potential with a camera phone, dont worry about it, your not the only one.

Car looks great

It depends how much the lance is lol looking forward to see it detailed then. The colour looks completely different when its super clean

Awesome! When you getting that fitted? I bet it'll sound awesome with the exhaust as well!

 

[Jekyll]

Is a lovely colour, very under estimated

 

[lesley]

Did you say you had snow foam you wanted to get rid of?

 

[Dave..]

Yeah I know, plus my photography skills are let's say.. limited I'm hoping some photos will get taken at the meet on Sunday! Thanks mate, so does yours!

What jet washer have you got (if you have one that is). Same! Aha I couldn't stand it being dirty anymore

Saturday, if this place can get me in. If not I'll fit it myself before then!

Cheers mate, I love it so much! I wasn't set out on getting an Inferno but when I went to view this one the money just flew out of my pocket

Looks lovely

Thank you! I'll let you take some more snaps of it on Sunday! Yeaa! It's slightly Alkaline (it's never bothered me, as worse stuff falls from the sky) but I will get some ph paper and a ph scale from science today or tomorrow to actually measure it, then show you!

Looks tidy

Cheers mate! Headlights are still looking good
