Before the bug bit - calypso - 05-10-2008 08:06 PM

I dunno about you guys but i have always been a car nut. And if your doing the work or getting it done for you car nuts always want a clean ride. I just found some pics of my old e30, it was R18k with 200000km+ on it, but a perfect student ride. Those days i never had the money to (or knowledge) to buy expensive products, and technique was just what i read off the back of the bottle.
But I think i did pretty will with some Rally Wash and Wax + some kitchen dishtowels. I think this was before i got my shield uber polisher + Miraplate sandpaper polish.

Sorry, feeling a little sentimental after the loss of my Schmitty, but please post some pics of your days before expensive products.
