Paramanic Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Hey Everyone Just washed car today finally the winter has stopped so far up here so had a chance to take photos of before and after and what a good job a did! don't mind me tooting my own horn lol :P I just wash car twice with 2 bucket system then dry i after using a thing like a window wiper across car to help dry faster then apply a my Diamondbrite Conserver over the car let it set in then polish off with a microfiber cloth. used black restorer for wheels and trim too and cleaned windows with rain X cleaner and rain repellent and hey presto look at the results and this generally lasts about 1.5-2 months for me before getting dirty again (first images was because not had a wash since december or something lol so here is my images a forgot how clean a can get it with minimal effort on mines thanks diamondbrite Before AFTER! Mirror finish lol So good weather hopefully is coming so get your before and after images on! :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyallan Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I cleaned mine today too. Got tyre shine on too. Bought some pink crap from Halford for my front wheels as parts have gone brownish baked on. Unfortunately stuff wasn't that great. Should have that feel good feeling going to work tomorrow.

laumk7 Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 How did you use the conserver? Was it in water (as per instructions on the bottle) or manually? It looks amazing btw! :d Sent from my iPad using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveTheDog Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Nice job James, I know you like your chushdy comfortable wheels but you need to sort that rear valance out, it looks like a standard Fez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey bud yeah a tried that before wasnt good a got stuff from B&M £1 only and works great a think thats where this one is from aswellal check in morning for ye but known me wont be much as ive tried expensive and cheap works just as good (not all the times tho) How did you use the conserver? Was it in water (as per instructions on the bottle) or manually? It looks amazing btw! :D Sent from my iPad using Ford OC What i do is i wash the car with the shampoo then dry it off faster using something like this once dry put in water like instructions then put it over car i tend to let sun dry it a bit then wipe full car down with a microfibre cloth and works great!!! Ps buy a new bucket and use it only for conserver :) and thanks! a guess you have it too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laumk7 Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Yeh I got diamondbrite on as well, and the full bag of kit from when I picked the car up, it's had a shampoo and go of conserver since picking it up, conserver in the water just looks strange , I'll defo let it dry on next time going by your example, it looks amazing! I use the three bucket method (wheel, wash, rinse) but as you say I might buy another just for the conserver, I use horse feeding buckets from countrywide, they're huge at 20litres but nice and wide as well for the job at hand Sent from my iPad using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
