Since I have my shiny new car, I want to take car of it properly. I live in an apartment complex where its difficult or impossible to give the car a good wash let alone detail it properly. Outside carrying buckets up and down from the kitchen!
Is there any DIY car washes around Auckland you would recommend? Do they let you use their bays to do your own stuff? Sealant and waxing etc?
I've found TJ's Car wash in Botany on Google has anyone used them before? Are they any good? They seem to be what I'm after. One thing that worries me is they advertise to commercial vehicles (trucks?). In my experience car wash equipment used for heavy goods vehicles carry tonnes of abrasive particles and can destroy paint work.
When I had a shed and space my process was:
Snowfoam
Rinse
Wash
Dry
Autoglym SRP
Collinite Wax
Clean the inside.
The car would shine like new for weeks! Used to take about 4 hours mind you
