I need to give my car a good clean...
Ive got autoglym shampoo. im going to use that chamois it dry... then i want to get it all shiny as it hasnt had a proper clean since i bought it.... so do i get some t cut original then use the black t cut after to polish it then wax it... or do i buy some meguiars scratch x and use that then the t cut black... or do i just use that... then use some wax... like the meguiars wax??
soo many options... just need to get rid of all the blemishes and small scratches..
thanks xx

Hi ya,
I am the world's worst at cleaning cars. Really I TRULY am (but why have a dog and bark yourself eh, as my mother always says). However after you've sorted the scratches and polished it you should SO go over it with AutoGlym after polish. Got a gold centre. It rocketh. The car looked like glass, even though I did it

Don't use T-cut m8.
Buy Scratch X.
(www.speeding.co.uk. Free p&p)
Scratch X takes out more scratches than it puts in.
I have just finished my ST170 and it looks great.
Pics of my motor are on www.allfords.net in Gallery under Admins ST170
