Yet another stunning 'detail'! What a transformation!

Nick, I must thank you for pointing me in the direction of the Autobright website... I brought one of their fluffy towels & a Meguires lambs wool mitt - its actually revolutionised car washing for me, not only does the mitt get in all those awkward to get areas it seems that less water is needed to wash the car - added to the benefit of avoiding dragging grit & dirt around on the paint causing those swirls & scratches. The towel is the biggest eye opener for me... for years I've been using chamoix leathers to dry off my cars, but it doesn't take long to saturate a leather, so with much wringing out it takes so long to fully dry off a car - the towel I just wipe over - & hey presto its dry! It soaks up water that gets in those gaps (between bumper/body joints around lights etc) So I can see why a professional valeter would use one - when you want to dry a car fully in preparation for polish & waxing.

Would love to get you to do my car (Integra Type R) one time, mines been machine polished at some point, but I think, not very well
