325CI - Another Poor-Boys Detail
We started on this car at 7am, I had been up with a stomach bug the whole of Friday night and actually msg'd Megesh saying that I didnt think I would make the day today! Throwup

Well.... afraid of staying home and facing the imminent boredness, I decided to take some Adco-Liperimide and head on out Uhoh2

This is the results of our work today...

Washed with the Vikan Body Brush, you can see that it definitely lifts the dirt from the car:

Yep, I saw Carn's pastry brushes at the Sonax detailing day. I also want one for wheels and another for interior to supplement the slide lock brush.
