An evenings work

[Alex225]

One of the handy things of working from home is having 3 hours of my day back from no commute. Decided to give my S Class a clean now it's got it's newly refurbished wheels fitted.

Gave the car a rinse and citrus pre-wash as usual and washed. I finished off with another layer of Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic. I'm still going on about this stuff as it's impressed me more than other products, even other spay on rinse off sealants. I've heard the term 'self cleaning' with coatings and waxes but I can honestly say that seems to apply to the finish this leaves behind. Other half's car has this applied, covered in bird sh*t, heavy rain washed it all off.

Gave the interior a wipe down. This Chemical Guys Inner Clean claims to have UV protection built in it but I like the matt finish and it smells nice!

Dr Leather cleaner for the seats, again just a cleaner, gentle and smells like leather.

Thought I'd try the liquid Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax on my wheels. Means I can top up with the spray next time, let's see how it lasts.

Haha yeah, my commute before lockdown was 90 minutes by bus/train into the City. I'm working from home now so means I get that time back every day.

Finished up my day at 5pm yesterday, had something to eat and then straight out to give the car a once over. Good times.

Funny thing with the numberplate is that my mum gave me a bit of money as a Christmas present. I put that money towards the numberplate and normally when I buy something frivolous she'll roll her eyes at me. On this occasion she saw the plate and just said, 'Actually that's pretty good' and laughed!

I’ve been using Poorboys Natural Look in the inside of mine recently , dries well with a sheen rather than a shine and smells nice as well , it was a toss up between that and the Chemical Guys Inner Clean which I’ll have to try next after your pictures

 

[kcsun]

Not used the Poorboys stuff but their products are usually very good. My local Motorworld has a whole load of Poorboys stuff.

The Inner Clean came up on an advert on Facebook and looked intriguing. Works very well on the non-plastic stuff round the dash on the S. I like Autoglym Rubber & Vinyl care but it's just too glossy on the leather stitched stuff. Inner Clean can be used on sat nav screens etc. so non-smeary.

Yeah I was thinking the calipers and hubs would look good painted at some point.
