Default Just had the car cleaned - NSFW but lovely

...as I don't have the means to do so myself (apartment living for you) and I usually get back and do the little bits that they miss.

Just look at the seats and you can sort of squish the squabs to get into the gaps - Blimey! There's all sorts growing in there. Thick black marks as well.

I think I'm going to have to use some sort of detergent to get rid of the marks and then get some leather nourisher to treat it afterwards.

The weather has cooled enough for me to do all this now and I want to have the car looking lovely for the winter - going to treat the roof later as well and then watch England batter Austria.

The seats are a doddle to take out, just four bolts. You will be able to clean them more thoroughly then. If you do though be careful not to snag any of the trim in the process.

That's about right

I hate watching England play - my nerves get shot to pieces.

Anyway - back on topic - I'd better get my arse in gear - cars don't
clean themselves you know.

Yes they do...

The car gets cleaned 3 times a day as a result.

Anyway, got back dug out the seat so filthy it was unbelievable, treated the roof and gave her a good polish - she looks awesome
