1st wash in months!!!

[Kalpsn2000]

Hi guys & gals

I've been a part of this forum for quite a while. Initially started reading before getting my GTI in Dec 2010. Did a lot of things in the first few years then got distracted by a girl

Well 3 years later and we are married! So back to my original love...my GTI

So I have spent quite a lot on car products in the last couple of months or so. Am planning to do my first machine detail this Spring. But for now just did the 1st wash since the Autumn.

I used snow foam for the 1st time too. Great Fun

Here's a few pics:


Looking pretty dirty!











Snow foamed with AB HD Lance and MagiFoam









After leaving it to dwell for about 15 mins







After rinsing and washing 2BM with meguiars shampoo










Pretty happy with the results...especially as I haven't polished or waxed it in around 2 years

Thanks for looking

You foam mix looks a little thick, as it's still pretty stuck on there after 15 mins!

She still looks the nuts fella.

Yeah did think that when I was spraying. Will be adjusting the concentration for next time

Was great seeing peoples faces as I was doing it though

Yeah, always get funny looks when I'm doing mine too!

That's pretty normal depending on the foam.
Magifoam will sit like that for half an hour.
great at stripping your wax lol

Does MagiFoam strip the wax? It says LSP friendly on their site?

I was planning to use it even once I've waxed the car later in the year.

[xjay1337]

It's LSP friendly at the right concentration.
If you can afford one a hot water pressure washer will get more dirt off than any snow foam or pre-rinse and doesn't effect your LSP at all!

Never been a fan of Valeos, but they look good on black.

Nice motor.

Looks lovely mate. But you haven't waxed it for two years??
