Detailing a Disco
Found this on YouTube. May inspire a few
When you are dead, you do not know you are dead. All of the pain is felt by others. The same thing happens when you are stupid.

I know there's a lot of 'use it don't wash it' and 'it's a land rover it's supposed to be muddy' etc. but that interior - that's just neglect. It's disgusting
On health grounds alone .. surely there's no excuse for that D4 XS, gone, much loved, never forgotten

I've started wondering if there are polishing heads available for my oscillating multi-tool. Tried a "rotary mop" and it didn't touch the bits where bird-poo has damaged the paint.

Had plenty of marks down the side before it was polished , couldn’t believe my eyes of what was possible with someone who knew what they were doing
Impressed was an understatement and really chuffed with the results
