Ive got quite a decent power wash....which I use 1st to get the majority of the crap off. The use turtle wax wash, then chamois it dry, then use turtle wax metalic wax/polish. Also in the middle of all that, I have a Auto Glym Bug remover, as thats what I find worse removing, the fooking flies/bugs :evil:

Its worth investing in some bug remover.......£5 a bottle I think, but they do just disolve off, so you dont need to scrub! makes life a lot easier.  |

I just take mine to my local homebase store cos they have a car wash service there, prices vary from £5 to £50 depending what u want.
i normally go for the asic £5 one which gets your car washed, dried and waxed and i have to say that for a fiver they get the car looking like its just come out of the showroom
