wow thats pretty cheap for $15...hopefully his wash mits are cleaned after every wash, otherwise the sand and pebbles from other cars would scratch your car anyway.

$40 hand wash tar removal on the bottom of the car clay bar blow dry all water from cracks
use only sponges not wash mits use 2 different sponges,one for top of car one for bottom of car use boat wax thats very durable and even more durable because i melt in a small amount of beeswax and add it right into the boat wax Last edited by AndrewBigA; 12-27-2007 at 11:35 PM.. |
