Excuse me, but that sounds positively “detailed” when I do the van!!! Let’s face it, you got the crud off and gave it a wash n buff! Good enough for me! (Yep, I use a ladder too!!!)@starstruck. On the [very] rare occasions that I wash my van, I'm with you in using a stepladder to get to the roof and centre of the windscreen. As I say, I don't do it often so the least that I can do is a half decent job when I do get around to it. I say only half decent as my regime is a quick blow with the pressure washer, a wash over with a cheap Halfords wash and wax (i've been using the same 5L bottle for a couple of years at least) and a rinse off with the pressure washer followed by a quick chamois / microfibre towel and a sealant type polish (currently Turtlewax ceramic stuff). It works for me and looks shiny enough but it's hardly to the concourse standard that a lot on here aim for (every week in some cases!).
Love it!Yer ditto. I've just washed it with the ceramic stuff I have already and done the same. I've washed it sprayed it and then micro fibres dry. Its turned out ok...this stuff

I know right, haha, that was the only thing sat in the back of the van, it took me ages to find the actual jack. I only found it when i went around a corner and heard this almighty clank and thought eh up there's a banging noise coming from under the passenger seat, oh no I seriously thought I had got myself a crap van. but i pulled the seat back and yep there it was in all its glory. and a lovely little space to stash more rubbish lol. its all in a bag wrapped in wadding in one of my cupboards now Mud but realised when i was reading something on here that i cant remember if i saw a wheel under the back end or not and if not, why am i carrying a jack and not one of those ridiculous cans of tyre foam thingy stuff or whatever it is@starstruck lol But Where's the rest of your Jack and wheel Spanner lol
@starstruck i keep my Jack under the passenger seat ...... ?.... lol... but its gotta go under me bed at some stage as i need more storageI know right, haha, that was the only thing sat in the back of the van, it took me ages to find the actual jack.

I was thinking your technique has changed a little since thenThat’s the one! If I recall, we ripped the Mickey out of you for chucking the bucket of water over the van at the end?!!
Have you read back through this thread i would recommend Maguire's ultimate wash and wax im getting amazing results with itI would also like to know what technique use to. I cleaned Sid Sunday and now it rained today and there are all dirty rain drop Mark's all over it. I would like to know what the easiest top seal would be please. Something I can spray on and rinse off. My backs killing me now haha
Chemical Guys do something that you spray on the washed vehicle whilst still wet and then hose it off. Its veryy hydrophobic after as well.I was referring to the top seal that Dell did in his video haha
SSSSHHHHHuuuuusssssshhh ........ i wont tell them about inside the cabNow I really didnt care with all my other cars as they were all old anyway. So I get my long awaited van and convert to camper, go onto a great forum, yes you guys and end up caring so much about how clean my van is that I have now turned into my dad, with the help of you lot. Just got these through the letter box and now cant wait to clean it again what the hell
