Just thought i'd follow this up.

I have a show to do tomorrow so been out and given the car a once over. Quick wipe over with a soft microfibre and hit with the second layer of wax since the photo above.

Also took the wheels off and gave them a spray up with a solution of Fairy liquid and water, about 10:1 so really mild.

I really like that style of Wheels you have there, did you add the blue stripe or did come like that?

I added that. It will be getting done by a pinstriper before long though.
