As some of you may know Iain (FinerDetails) did my car back in November, around 5 weeks ago. Since then I have covered around 3,000 miles and washed my car once!

Well I got in from university at lunch time and gave the car a wash using the now famed '2 Bucket Method', and then dried it with a MF cloth. Had a brew and a butty and then applied Natty's Blue Wax to the bodywork, Megs High Endurance Gloss to the tyres, and Stoner's Invisible Glass to the windows.

So here are the results, apologies for lighting, sun was in way all the time!

Nice one, looks fantastic. Of the cars I've detailed for people now, the second biggest surprise (after how good it looks when done) is how easy it is to keep it looking clean with just a quick wash - good preparation is of course the key to this - and Iain taught me!

nice top up and maintenance post there Andy, the car is looking top draw fella!

How did you find the Natty's, and as a comparison the result time and effort having to only wax top on the prep from the detail you had done?

Found the Natty's great. Found it quite hard to get off though so don't know if its a combination of me putting too much on as its first time I have used it and the cold weather maybe?

Its actually quite amazing how easy it is just to clean it as the paintwork underneath is so smooth. I should have done the famed before and after shots. It really was bad this morning! Mud up the side, and all sorts of horrible stuff. Still very impressed with it, especially when I see it at night under street lights and there are no swirls!
