Its a great place, stayed there last year, we had the suite directly above the front door, amazing place and the staff were really friendly can't recommend it enough 

Just wondering where did you get you mudflaps from mate ?

Well its update time again 

It was time for a spring clean as the winter weather/roads have taken there toll on the 500's super smooth finish

Took the day off work to spend six hours cleaning the car  hard work but worth it 

Snowfoamed to start with





Wheels fully cleaned,polished,sealed with rim wax, then tyres waxed with Dodo juice Tyromania



Bodywork cleaned with the two bucket/grit guard method and Dodo juice born to be mild shampoo 



Plates removed so i could clean it all properly





Bodywork and glass clayed with Meguiars clay



Looking smooth  DA polished with mezerna power polish, waxed with Dodo Juice supernatural then sealed with Dodo juice red mist, Glass cleaned with Dodo juice clearly menthol





Interior carpets fully Vacuumed shampooed treated interior glass and trim and finally cleaned and treated all interior leather 



Gave the engine bay a degrease and shine and treated the plastics with Dodo juice Fantastic plastic



And then it rained  luckily i had just finished



Had chance to use some of my new Dodo juice products and i really rate them     

As you can see a fellow Abarthisti came to watch me detail the car but didnt lend a hand   

Apologies for the dark pics but the sun didnt really come out today 

Looks fantastic

You have an obsessive eye for detail that I would kill for......if I could be bothered

Trooper I wish I had a 1/4 of your dedication.  

Trooper, I recently bought some Red Mist and it says in the instructions do not use on freshly applied wax. You seemed to have used it straight away, so is it ok in practice?

Looking good there troop.Cant wait to fully detail mine too.How do you find snow foaming and da polisher?Worth it?

The snow foam lance is a gimmick really nothing a spray bottle degreaser wouldnt do but it does look cool 

The DA polisher is a godsend i could of easily spent another two hours doing it by hand but im fanatical about detailing and i still wouldnt use it more than 3-4 times a year
so for the average person i doubt it would make financial sense 

OMG Trooper, that looks fantastic, but it tells me I must spend less time over the weekends watching football, rugby, drinking beer and sussing out my camera
