So I have recently bought myself a few new cleaning items and thought I would test them out on my MX5 which has been sitting neglected on the drive since I got my DS3 a month ago.
The first few pics show how dirty it was, bird poo and all.



So first jet washed with my new Nilfisk Titan jet wash.
Autobrite magifoam yellow
Rinsed
Then used Farecla G3 clay mitt with Meguiar's Gold Class Shampoo
Rinsed
Dried
Meguiar's Ultimate polish
Meguiar's Premium Quick Wax
It was a bit hard going with the polish as the sun came out and it kept drying before I was buffing it off. I really liked the quick wax though. I didn't get time to clean the alloys so a job for tomorrow.
The jet washer came with a foamer gun and it was ok but a thick foam was not produced.
The results.



I am going to be selling her in the summer which will break my heart but she's hardly being used now as she was my 2nd car although I did drive her around 50% of the time as my old 1st car was a Fiesta. Now I have the DS3 as my 1st car and I know I'll be driving that a lot more than I did my Fiesta. My Fiesta is now in our garage being prepared for sale.
