Cleanliness & Order

You want to see how many car care products Cliff has a van and shed full of various waxes and so on.
But he is a car valeter and detailer so i guess he has an excuse for the amount of money that goes on products.

Hi Shelly.
Unfortunately not always bit of a bus man's holiday we have 3 cars to keep clean not always possible to keep all clean but they have good protection on them.
Very happy to give tips and advice.
Some items mentioned above had me winceing.
Washing up liquid a big no no it contains salt and that encourages corrosion.
A sponge never use one they are often get full of grit which causes swirls light scratches .
I can give tips advice to you so many stages and products on the market bit of a minefield.

Best regards.

Cliff.

Yes but it keeps your hands nice and soft.
 
That looks like a serious cleaning disorder you have there Andy, have you seen the doctor (BMG) he will be impressed. I shall have a mirror with me next time we meet, to make sure you've cleaned all those hard to reach places with cotton buds!!!!!

Must try harder @Shelly as the old girl is not up to the standards of my Fiesta RS Turbo I owned in the 90's. But back then we had no children and my shift pattern was 24 hours on and 24 hours off for a couple of years so there was lots of car washing and polishing once the aircraft had stopped flying for the night. Kept her in the Fire Station all night in a heated garage so I could work on her all night in the dry and warm. Good old days ;)
