Right then - today I've had a long chat with James at Sportscarprotection Surrey and the car is booked in with him in October to get the paint film all removed, full paint correction and ceramic protection to be applied.

Have also been to Clean and Shiny in Aldershot, and bought 2 buckets, 2 grit guards, a wash mitt, a wheel brush, shampoo, snow foam, lance, microfibre towels... blooming expensive business

Below is this weeks effort....

Today was a snow foam (Valet Pro PH neutral), followed by a two bucket wash with my Microfiber Madness Washmitt, Incredibrush (wheels), and Zaino Z7 shampoo, and then a towel dry using a Meguiars Water Magnet Drying Towel), plus an Ubermax Incredible Drying Towel...

I think I need some better drying towels, so what do others use?

Water dry it and you will hardly need to dry it,
Remember the idea is to spens as little time touching / rubbing the paint as possible...

Waffle weave towel here too. I have bought several and the blue poorboys is better than the yellow ebay ones only because it is bigger and a little thicker too so holds more water. The Ebay ones are great too.
