Had a good car washing session, managed to polish the two front doors and two front wheel arches by hand, and is now 80%, but it looks really shiny. Love it.
Now, only the hood/bonnet and front bumper remains, then the whole car had two rounds of polish. After this I will probably attack the spots and panels with the most scrathes. Getting there. #TurtleWax #CarDetailing #Polish #Wax

Shiny new car so going down the YouTube rabbit hole of car detailing. Wonder how long that will last. At least the the little Renault Zoe EV got a wash a month through the winter. #Cardetailing #EV The old girl did us proud.

Made my own "wet wax" yesterday for when I wash the car. This would allow me add protection, a drying aid and lubrication to the paint when I dry the car after a wash. Nice! #cardetailing #wax #cars #carwash

Had a great, relaxing car wash session today.
Cleaned only the outside, but had a chance to apply some sexy spray wax for some crazy gloss.

Tomorrow I'll be applying some trim and tire dressing, and some febreze on the inside. Gonna look good. #cardetailing #detailing

If everything works out tomorrow I am actually very keen to wash my car and give it a nice polish.
Doing it by hand, so it takes time to get that crazy gloss. #cardetailing #polish #turtlewax

And my favorite car wax is the DodoJuice Rainforest Rub soft wax. This is a blend of Carnuba, Candelilla and Beeswax. (It smells good too).

It's especially good at saturating the red tones of my VW GTI.

With the harsh NZ sun, regular use of sealants and/or waxes is important to prevent UV damage to the paint.

I'm one of two daughters & my father taught me how to clean a car. Snow foam, wheel wash, two bucket wash & rinse system, followed by a Bowden's Own "Happy Ending" for water beading, and a Boss Gloss dry down. With a little help from my husband for the bigger SUV.

So damn satisfying.

Had a very productive day.

Washed my car, clay barred the paint, then polished it with Turtle Wax Ceramix Polish & Wax by hand! I also treated the Interior Plastics.
The whole process took 4 hours haha.

It was brutal, but I love detailing my car. I am not 100% happy, but made massive progress today. The car is closer to perfection.
Maybe one polish session left, then it'll be good enough. Then I can seal the paint with Turtle Wax's Hybrid Ceramic Spray wax. #CarDetailing #TurtleWax #Polish

Man, car detailing is a wormhole of note.
It's just an endless pit of possibilities and permutations of products and techniques. Insane. But....I love it. It's a great hobby and I love the look of a clean car. #cardetailing #cars

Washed my car today. Paint is still looking amazing after it's first compound, polish & wax a few months ago. #cardetailing

Been looking at Car Detailing videos again. Man, it's quite the artform of you want your car's paint to be like glass without swirl marks. #cardetailing #wax #polish #buff

Going to the hardware shop today to buy Ultimate Compound Polish for my car. Excited to see the result when I'm done. #CarDetailing

I guess I have a new hobby now - Car Detailing.
It's hard work, but rewarding to drive in a beautiful clean car. #hobbies #cardetailing

Had a very busy day. Washed, polished and waxed my car, including treating the plastic trim to preserve it and treated my tires. Took me 4 hours, but was worth it.
I love deicing in a clean car and I am starting to get into car detailing. #carwash #cardetailing #polish #waxing
