Nought out of 10 for originality for starting a car washing thread, but hey, we nearly all wash the old crate sometime or other.
The handbook of the CC3 says water is the most important thing when it comes to washing.
But what about the chemicals?
I put some shampoo/wash and wax stuff in the water, but only the cheapest brand I can find, or what's on offer.
Halfords had a decent sized bottle of Turtle Wax for 'half price' a couple of weeks ago.
About £4 I think.
So is it worth paying two or three times that amount?
And what of polish?
I tend to use a coloured one - colour magic(?) - which costs about £8.
Is there any point in paying £20-£40 for something that does the same job?
Lastly, what about cleaning allow wheels?
I applied the same logic and bought a five litre container of cleaner for about £10.
