Josh Wardell’s MINI Cooper S

Including some updates to my main MINI page, I’ve added a new Car Care page which details the many cleaning products I use.

I could care less about myself, but my MINI, oh it must have the best cleaing products and filtered water! 😀

We had an amazing 65-degree sunny day yesterday. I was amazed to find myself with nothing to do (finally), so I took advantage of both, ran the hose out the window, and started on the first wash of the season.

My neighborhood knows me, I am out there all day…

Wash with dish soap. Claybar, Wash with car wash. Spray with filtered water. A coat of Z1 then a coat of Z2. Wait a while and buff off, then a second coat of Z2 & buff.
Not to mention detailing the rims and peanut oiling the trim.

I forgot just how great black looks when clean. 🙂 That’s why I got it.

I also installed two little goodies that arrives on saturday. Locking mini logo valve step caps–they brilliantly have an outer ring the spins freely preventing kids from adding them to their bicycles. Thank ebay for that one. And secondly, some fierce eyes for inside the engine bay…I took advantage of motorswag’s april fool’s sale.

Sadly it was almost dark by the time I was finished so I have no photos. But at least I can take photos in the future now that that coat of winter grime is gone!

What better to do on such a nice day?
