      Not allowed! Not allowed!
      Who knows who spies on our website? They'll have me down as a terrorist if this goes on
      It's only a (legal) 12 bore after all.

          I cleaned mine the other day as a friend of mine wants to make a top gear-esc video using it (which i'll upload here once complete), only to find when we got to the location we were using for the shoot, that a few bugs had decided to commit suicide across the grill and bonnet. Making some of the shots unusable.

            Keep a bottle of water and a small sponge in the boot always
            AND in the DS3 a bottle of polish too (Sad eh)
            If anyone takes the P when I do it (straight away when seen) just tell them protecting my investment (Quite true)

              THATS ONE BIG BIRD LOL
              According to Jimbob, (AKA Howitzer) down here, theyre HERRING gulls. No such thing as Seagulls (Other than the footie team)

                Sure sounds good. I'm still shopping for my clean kit while I wait on my DS3 coming and this looks a winner based on the reviews. Thanks :cool:

                  Parked my car up about 4 hrs ago and just been out again and there was a bird shat splodge, removed it with the bird lime remover and it's left a nasty wrinkle type splodge in the paintwork :/....the paint must be really crud on citroen's as a neighbour has got a new focus and while he was away for a week it looked like it had been used for target practice, he washed it yesterday there is no paint damage whatsover......pffft

                      its awesome stuff - im still waiting for my ds3 but mmy other car is a landrover and they take a lot of cleaning plus you get a lot of brake dust on the wheels as theyre so heavy on brakes (autos especially) , plus i do tend to chuck mine in the muddiest quarrys and lanes imaginable and then spend hours getting it minty fresh again - i just did this years treatment of finishkare on the truck and it had a day spent on it letting it cure and buffing etc

                      really since i did it last year ive only needed a quick jetwash and speed detail to bring it back to a stunning finish including the wheels and thats going some considering some of the places we go
