always made sure sponges were clean and replaced them when needed. wash from top down. seperate sponge for undercar bits, wheels and exhaust.

Buy the best chamios. 1 for inside, 1 for outside, 1 for the door sill, boot sill, engine bay

I have not been much of a fan of waxing and polishing. When i used to garage the car and wash it every week, i did not have polish it for 4-5 years. Would have to polish every 6 months now. Which i havent been.

I would never recommend cut and polish. NEVER

Black shine. Amourall ? Dont use it on the black bits on the outside and dont use it on the inside of your car. I think its like tanning oil. Just makes it burn and discolour. (from my experience)

im probably not the best to comment on this... But this is what i want to stick to for the 86

Car wash with Maguire's GOLD or Premium Shampoo.
I do the same thing, 1 chammy for body, 1 for door sills,boot sills extra, 1 for inside. another cloth for windows (my cousin keeps telling me to try newspaper because it just "works" better on glass, it won't leave fluff on your windows he says... *rolls eyes* right...). polish every season, apply with micro fibre cloth all over car, then buffer off with micro fibre auto buffer with variable speeds. and then for plastic I use BMW plastic car, works like magic! smells good too. xD

Sorry for steering this thread a little off topic, but I'm glad I did... Thanks for the good tips guys. I will be using many if not all of them :thumb up:

Plus this may be a good thread topic!
