Sunburn, Jetseal and Carnauba Wax

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Over the past year or so my car’s been looking a little worse-for-wear.  What with moving house and the long commute I’ve not really had a chance to wash it as much as I used to.

Having read though a tonne of car cleaning threads on Seloc I thought I’d tool up with some new stuff from http://cleanyourcar.co.uk and put my new toys to good use. 

So I spent Saturday afternoon giving the car a good clean inside and out.  I ended up doing the full wash, clay, polish, seal and wax routine and am really chuffed with the results.  If not the sunburn I got in the process! :)

The pics don’t really do it justice!

Going for a drive…

Monday, June 30th, 2008

After having a fantastic drive to work this morning, I thought I would dig out an old route for a ‘run’ I’ve done with the Lotus guys in the past.  It’s based around the country roads in Surrey and Sussex and starts fairly close to my office finishing not too far from home.  With the sun still shining I’ll probably take the long way home later - it’ll take an hour extra but it’s worth it :)

Now I’ve found the file I thought I’d post it up here.  The original authors are (I think) lost in time so I can’t credit them, but it’s a great drive.
