How Carl Used Our Products

First of all I rinse 'Marty' with a hose pipe to loosen any surface dirt, I then use my Shampoo and conditioner to clean him. Once clean I go round the whole car with the tar remover and insect remover getting rid of any ground in tar, film or dirt.

I then spray each wheel with Wheel cleaner and use the wheel brush to get rid of any brake dust.

Then using the detailer spray and my clay bar I run around the car making sure the paint is as smooth as it can be before polishing it.

I then rinse out my bucket and wash the car again to get rid of the oily look of the tar, insect remover and detailer spray then go over the wheels with a different wash mitt to make sure everything is clean.

Using my perfect palm applicator I apply the paint renovator to get rid of any swirl marks from the paint. And take off with a wool buffing pad, I go over the whole car until the paint is smooth and swirl free.

I then use a different perfect palm applicator pad to apply the super resin polish buffing off once again with a new wool buffer.

And repeat this process with the HD Wax applying this time with a foam applicator pad and removing with a soft microfibre cloth. Once everything is gleaming I seal the wheels. Use the bumper gel on the trim, the metal polish to go over the chrome bright work being a mini it has a lot of chrome.

Marty has a leather top so I make sure that the leather is cleaned and treaded with leather balm as it is only out in the sun and it fades very easily if not looked after.

The glass is last and I make sure inside and out is streak free.

To finish off I use a clean dry soft microfibre cloth to go over the whole car making sure I haven’t left any wax or polish on the paintwork or trim.

Hope you like him as much as I do and thanks for looking and voting.
