jet wash for me - @ the brush after the motorbikes, will watch out for that next time

used to take the hire cars I drove for a summer job into the drive through car wash and that's another good reason not to buy an ex hire car

My pride and joy in a rotating mess of abrasive fibres and cheap detergents?

Pull the other one - that's the sort of thing a Beemer driver would do (TO55POTS)!!!

No way m8!

I used to use them on my Nissan, but the car paintwork ended up looking like a cheap aluminium brushed effect.

Wasn't pleased.

I'd wash a Ford in a carwash though, especially if it wasnt mine!!

Noooooooooooooooh!

I was cleaning Brand new Scoob with total milage less than my age and still gleaming (very sad) near me at a Jetwash and guy from the shop stepped out and told me that the detergents and cleaners in a Jetwash knacker paint completely...the look on his face had me sold.

He gets free tokens and does'nt use the damn thing. Great for getting rid of crud around the wheel arches but leave the paint alone.!

I'm not selling any product in particular but clean and wax the car properly and you'll be amazed what a "quick" wash will do.

Cheers
