How Jamie Used Our Products

First off I Snow Foam the car including the underside and wheel arches. Whilst that is working I work on the wheels using Autoglym's Clean Wheels and a Swissvax Wheel Brush. Once done I rinse off using a pressure washer.

Then on to the two bucket method using warm water. For this I use SmartWax's Smart Car Wash - a personal favourite of mine - and a Meguiars Microfiber Wash Mitt. Once done I then rinse off, again using the pressure washer. Then on to drying, I like to use a Gtechniq Zero Scratch Microfibre Drying Towel found it works very well.

Now I move into the Garage. When Machine Polishing my car I use SCHOLL Concepts S3 Gold Edition for stubborn marks and swirls, after that I move on to SCHOLL Concepts S30+ to then remove fine swirls and to bring the paintwork up to a high orange peel-free finish. After this I move on to Dodo Juice's Lime Prime Pre-Wax Cleaner and apply it by hand.

Now for the wax. I have a few that I like using, there is Dodo Juice's Orange Crush and Banana Armour or Autoglym's HD Wax. All of which I apply using Meguiars High Tech Applicator Pads. Then I just buff off using a microfibre cloth. Then dress the tyres using Meguiars Endurance High Gloss Tyre Gel and a Meguiars Tyre Dressing Applicator Pad.

And that is pretty much it. Thanks for reading.
