Crap isnt it this time of year!!

Try having candy white........just 1 journey in wet weather and its dirty again!!!

I wont clean it unless i know theres at least 5+ days good weather ahead.

Im waiting now to wash it but no point, i even went to Halfords and spent £60 on x2 buckets, Noodle mitt, various cleaners, wash & wax, sponges & air freshener and even ordered from them deep luxury tailored mats for only £44.99
Theres no such thing as "grey area" im just plain and simple "black & white"

Changed all my after market alloy bolts from silver to black, silver bolts on my black wheels looked crap!

Also new lock nuts also in black.

Looks much better now :)

Washed Roxie today with Gyeon Bathe+ got to be said very easy to use and the finish plus beading and sheeting is awesome. The car does have around 20 coats of werkstat acrylic on though. Image
