Default Flash carwashing my Escos

I thought it was about time that I tried this new Flash car wash kit
here are the results


take one dirty Escos





rinse with normal water

then



shampoo with hose attachment (ooh err missus)



bit of work needed here, get busy with the sponge



rinse with water again



then again using super duper deioniser whatnot



and it really works, no more chamois for me
this is how it turns out after you leave it for a while,no streaks atall,a few droplets,probably due to it being my first go, but I reckon its well worth the money
