Posts: 1,654 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 | Gill's Barge I thought I'd share my swift clean of Gill's barge with you, before, ![]() ![]() The original plan was to use my new Victoria wax Concours kit and Serious Performance Sheepskin wash mitt, there wasn't any dilution ratio on the bottle so I used 1:300 which gave a nice foamy, glossy wash which was better than my first trial with 'basics of bling' in my last thread. ![]() But due to changing plans, I had to give it a quick wipe down with 2 layers of Serious Performance Show Detailer v2 after, ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Hopefully get a proper chance to use the Victoria wax shortly, now that the better weather is setting in :cool3:

Really need to get the wheels off an do them properly too. Although they have come out really well for the time being.

Even a bit of rust on the tailgate, which I wasn't expecting on what's meant to be a fully galvanised car ![]() ![]()
