Washing additives
The sun is out, it's like a spring morning. IMHO glorious.
So it's a day to clean and polish the Disco and SWMBO's Beetle.
After washing, hoovering, chamoix and tea break it's time to admire my handy work...... Aaarrgghhhh water streaks, it's not nice.
So a while back I had a car that had GuardX treatment, you washed and then rinsed with a conserver. The result was showroom paintwork and lovely streak free paintwork, rain also beaded off.
I'd like to achieve this nice clean appearance on my Disco but don't want GaurdX (cost). Any thoughts on how to achieve this at a resonance cost.
Many thanks.D3 SE MY55 [gone]

Thankfully mother nature tends to 'give and take' in this part of the world; gives the mud and road grime, then removes it with the next torrential downpour Currently 2009 Disco 3 SE, 2013 MY D4 HSE and 2016 D4 SE
