First Clean and Polish of 2013
#1
Decided to give the old dear a good clean tonight to get rid of salt and grime from past several months. She doesnt look bad to say she 9 year old now. I am proud of her Big Grin

I used Autoglym Shampoo and then polished with Autoglym Super Resin Polish giving it a final coat of Simoniz Spray on Detailing Wax which i thought i would try as it was on offer in halfords. Seems to be quite good will just wait and see how repellent it is.

The guards are nice but Im not a fan of the smoked lenses.
It was trendy back then but no longer is...
It is on my to do list.
But not right at the top

That, sir, is a cracking job! Until all the snow and salt has gone from round here, mine just gets a 'quick' spray.

The facelift model has darker rear lights now, so may be coming into vogue again.
