Just found some pics, from when I had done a wash and hand detailing session - total time was about 4 hours...

This is what the car looked like before I started:

Started with the wheels...

Then gave the car a wash and a quick top up of protective wax:

Was pretty pleased with the results considering the wax used is for protection rather than looks.
Polish and sealant used was applied some 2-3 months earlier when the car was detailed with an all purpose cleaner and clayed.
All by hand - no PC or rotary used.

Aye it didn't scrub up too badly at all :D - but pics are always deceiving imo :roll: Seen some tatty examples look good in pics, but in real life...:shock: :lol: :lol:

Just gave the car a general clean (meg's gold class, 2 bucket...yada yada) and topped it up with some Collinite 476 which I use as a protective wax. What it lacks in terms of looks (against similar priced wax products) it makes up 10 fold in protection. Very easy to work with also.

If you need any specific info send me a PM :D
