Keeping your car like new...

[Superfly Guy]

No chamois and no sponges !!!!!

I use a sponge on my wheels, then again they are matt painted.

My ds3 is a black colour paint.it looked very cool parked in the showroom but after owing it is a real pain. All the dirt and tiny dents are very visible in the black paint..,also it feels very soft..just a small touch of the
door in a wall and the paint goes off.
My advice is to hand wash it, try to avoid narrow spaced car parks,always leave plenty of space on the side and
open the doors slowly

I had the same issues with my black DS3's loved them but the paint was v soft

I'm getting the marks touched up tomorrow afternoon and a sealant applied which should last 12 months so hopefully that'll give me peace of mind ... For another while!

What tyre dressing do you guys recommend? Going to take a trip to halfords at the weekend. :snowy0:

I use the Meguiars Tyre Gel,this can be painted on a clean tyre wall with a clean paint brush and lasts a lot longer than liquid dressings and dries in a way which reduces the risk of the gel spraying off the tyre wall and on to clean paintwork.
