16 Windows finished with Megs nxt glass cleaner and rainx

That about it i know i have alot of megs but it works for me and you have to use what you have got. The one thing i have learn't is to keep all your drying towels, mitts, micro fiber towels, pads, brushes and buckets clean as dirt dust and grit is the enemy to your paint.

Whilst I admire your effort and conviction to the job, I'm outsourcing my detailing service as usual, having it done tommorow

How long did this process take, did you do it one one hit or over a few day period?

[rs4boy]

It took me two days to do it SJ-RS4. I must admit you can't beat getting it done by a detailer, and the older I am getting the more i think i will get someone in to do it.
