    Hi guys

    I'm Nige from across the pond, and I'd thought I'd post a few pics of my recently purchased new ride.
    A few before shots

    I firstly tackled the wheels with Billberry

    They were then PW off, and came up quite nicely

    The car was then snow foamed with Bilt Hamber Autofoam

    I then cleaned using two bucket method, using Duragloss 901, I really rate this shampoo, so slick, and leaves a great gloss finish. The car was then clayed with Bilt Hamber soft clay, and as you can see, it was pretty contaminated.

    Once claying was finished, I applied two coats of Collinite 845, tyres were dressed with Megs Endurance. A few finished pics.

    Very nice! Wish they had the ST over here. The focus on this side of the pond looks terrible.

    Just curious, what does Duragloss 901 fetch for price over there?

    looks great. for a guy that doesnt like american cars very much, that focus is looking pretty nice.

    Hi

    I pay £5.99, that's for 16 FL OZS, that converts to about $9.00, How does that compare?, as I do like it so much, I may buy in 1 gallon form next time.

    Sounds about right. Just wondering since we have to pay a LOT for some of the UK stuff such as Bilberry, because there are no distributors over here. DG is an OTC product here in the states.

    so you went from claying straight to waxing?

    you didnt notice any fine scratches or marring after claying?
