Car washing products
The cleaning products I currently use on my car to get the best clean. Soaps and sprays. Multiple washes to be had from all of these chemicals. They last me a while.
I always begin washing the exterior of my car wheels first. The first thing I do is use an iron cleaner to help remove any stubborn break dust. This chemical does a fantastic job. Simply spray on and wait 5 minutes before rinsing off with a pressure ...

Anything that doesn't come in a bottle but is vital to getting that detailed finish on your beloved vehicle
This brush is great for getting between the spokes of a vehicles rims. It is great for reaching in places where your hand or a cloth just can't reach. An essential tool when cleaning the wheels of your car.
Bowden's Own The Flat Head Brush
I use these brushes with almost every wash. Great for both detailing the interior as well as to agitate the soap on surfaces on the exterior such as the rims and or badges. Always great having these on hand when cleaning my car.
The Foursome brush set
After giving your car a big dose of soap and bubbles it always comes out looking better. An important step though which is sometimes missed is to dry the vehicle to keep the vehicle looking clean once dry. Droplets left to dry depending on the locati...

Bowden's Own 3 Bucket Wash Kit - BOBK3 - Autobarn

Armor All Microfibre Glass Cleaning Cloth - E301723500 - Autobarn
