Mini Detail
After Nezquick's thread about detailing I thought it would be rude not to gie my S a once over.
Washed using the 2 bucket method
Dried using a microfibre towel
Race Glaze 55 wax applied
Megs Last Touch QD wipe down
Tyres dressed with Poor Boys Trim Dressing
I hope you like it!
Just got to get her a new owner now!

Good work!
They really are fantastic and can dry 2 medium sized cars in one go. Much better than the waffle weave towel I had previously. don't forget, don'tuse any fabric conditioner when you wash it! It'll effect it's absorbency!

Looks fantastic! Very misceivious looking front bumper too. Is there a lot of advantage using these micro fibre towels Vs a decent chamois leather then? I only just treated my S to a £20 leather from Halfrauds but after reading posts on here think it's perhaps a little old fashioned to use them now?

Thank you!
MF towels are far superior to chamois leathers. With a MF towel the dirt/dust that is left on the car after washing is drawn into the centre of the towel, away from the paint surface. With a chamois lether you are effectively drawing the dirt/duct across the surface of the paint thus inducing marring. It's the same principle witha sponge vs. a wash mitt.
Also, It's a hell of a lot quicker drying a car with the MFtowel as you're not stopping to wring it out.
My advice, get one and don't look back!!

This is the one I got and, as you can see..."Nothing beats the soft, sensuous feel of top quality 100% chamois leather" ooer missus sounds a bit sexy doesn't it lol!?
Will give a microfibre one a go though to see the difference...Cheers!
