Hoping this might help some people as I’ve found it to be an absolute game changer…. I used to use several towels when drying the car and then leave them hanging up around the house for several days afterwards (which the wife loved) but over the course of the past few weeks I’ve started using a car dryer and they are perfect for drying any Lotus as you can fully dry the car in every single nook and cranny. I definitely wouldn’t say it’s a quicker way to dry your car as it is quite time consuming but what I can say is that if you’re thorough your can will be totally dry everywhere and leaving water sitting in certain areas will damage your car in the long run…

had the evora 2 years and hadnt noticed some grubby marks on the headlining before unless it was some grubby hands during a service but on a cream / white headlining how would i go about getting those marks out ? one wrong move and it would be made much worse me thinks !

I just had a set of wheels for the Evora refurbished. Have yet to fit them to the car but was thinking it might be worth ceramic coating them before I do to aid in keeping them clean. I've ordered some G Techniq C5. Instructions seem simple enough. Given the wheels are already clean is it really as simple as it seems? Wipe down with some alcohol/ few drops on the cotton pad and wipe over half a wheel at a time and them rub off with a micro fibre? Anything to watch out for? Thanks!

Having been let down by my usual valet company and receiving poor customer service when I complained, I'm looking for new options. I thought I might have a change in strategy. I could do with some new PPF (as it's gone yellow) and it would be good to give the car a nice treat and a spruce up at the same time. I would then look at getting a maintenance detail every 6 months to try to keep things up to scratch (poor word for this!). Now, my issue is this. I need someone with a studio as I can't provide space for this. I'm sure the best ones have studios anyway. Elite car care appears to have got good reviews in the past but they request you mail them as they don't…

Hello All I hope you enjoy the video demo showing how our leather soap cleans leather. Leather is a sensitive surface and some thought is needed to make sure that over the long term the cleaning work put in to leather does not deteriorate the finish over a long period of time. Car leather although sensitive is also quite hard wearing. Most car leathers have a polymer paint coating the top of the leather making sure it prevents the leather from drying out. Old cars you would need to regularly oil and feed your leather to keep it supple but modern leathers do not required this type of attention. However the choice of cleaner is important. …

any recommendations much appreciated, or i am relying on google reviews ! thanks

Aircraft Cleaning - The Do's & Don't's Did someone say cleaning an aeroplane, by hand!? There’s a common misconception in the industry that ‘car cleaning’ products are, as the title suggests, just for cars. The truth of the matter is you can practically use these products (more-so the pH Neutral ones) on a variety of subjects… cars, bikes, motorhomes to name a few. Not forgetting the fact that they’re perfect for cleaning around the house, although we wouldn’t recommend Snow Foaming! However, there’s one subject rarely spoken about and that’s cleaning on aircrafts… We recently had the opportunity to attend a local airstrip for a Fly-in BBQ …
