MY E90 wet and dirty

Hi All,

Here's my 335d Le Mans Blue with black dakota leather and aluminum trim.

Been using autoglym their Red Valet Bag? look for something else that last longer between washs? I wash her every three weeks at the moment.

Need something that easy to apply and take off? with summer approaching the trees around the car losing their leafs drives me potty everyone seem to land on the blood car and no I can't cut the tree's down as her in doors would do her owning chop and she put it?

So any suggestion are welcome

There isn't any valeting product that will stop leaves falling on the car, a chainsaw is your only answer.

Hi All,

Thanks for the comments

Yea have a car cover pain in the backside when it's pouring down to get the cover on and off



I do have a garage (pic above) but it's now called a unitly room? I thinks she pissed at me for not getting her a 5 series? that was 5 years ago

Just in case you want to see pic of her car.



Looking for a wax that's a bit more resilient to dust and leaf sap and whaterver other crap that come off the tree's.


Spec is

M Sport leather steering wheel with gear
M Star Spoke Style 193 8/8.5Jx18
M Sport Package
Rear-view mirror. auto dimming
Headlight wash
Rain sensor with auto. headlight activat
Bluetooth phone prep + telematics

BMW Assist online portal
Elec Fold Exterior Mirrors
Navigation-system Professional
SA3 Pricing Rule for 620 Voice Control
Seat adjustment. part-electric
Visibility Package
Park Distance Control rear

and a few other bit can't remember what?

One mistake was leaving 6FL off the usb for the center console

Here's a pic of cars interior

For protecting paint I'm liking Werkstat Acrylic Jett in the trigger. You can get it from Polished Bliss.

i have used different wax and ones that take hours or minutes but the best wax i have used to date is nubawax ( http://www.nubawax.com/ ) best thing about it is that u dont need the car dry to put on just clean and its simple put on and wipe off with a micro fiber cloth. car can be done in 20mins and it lasts a long time. and rain runs off the car and as soon as u drive off the water is gone.. very very good product.
i added a picture of my car just after a full de-tar and wax with nubawax
