So. Got home from work yesterday evening: wife and bairns out. What better way to pass the time than to give the car a good scrub, get all the squished flies off the thing. Hosed it off, liberal application of soapy warm water, using some Simonez wash n polish stuff that we got from Costco, hosed again, rub with a chamois to get most of the water off.
This morning I step outside to greet my shiny love machine and ... it looks like sh!t. COVERED in white blotches. I know black cars are supposed to be notorious for keeping clean and shiny but this really looks terrible.
So. This evening I'm gonna go by Halfords on my way home and investigate their array of cleaning products, but I wondered whether fellow fms here had any suggestions as to a decent way forward for keeping my pride and joy looking the way it should, as opposed to the blotchy mess I have at the moment.
As an adjunct, the leather is black, which is fine, with nice contrast white stitching. How to clean the leather without ruining the white stitches...?
Hmmm.
