That's the first "real" clean in 11 months, I don't think you can count the Morrisons jet wash.
I used an armful of Auto Glim products as B&Q are doing a 3 for 2 on all car cleaning gear, the cheapest being free.... 
What has made my blood boil is, I found cat scratches on the bonnet. There is a crank that lives in the corner of our green who takes in rescue cats. Their in the bins,  everywhere and climb on my effin' car..... 
Even my working Patterdale won't go near them, (smart dog)...So I think it's time for another Weihrauch....

Must be something in the air.
I washed, clayed, washed, cut, polished, waxed and interior cleaned/vacuumed mine Friday.
Mine is black too
Then I did the interior again after taking my children and two of there friends out for the day, plus when I went to the car the morning after there was a very noticeable fine layer of dust over the entire thing  D3 incl. genuine glass windscreen, front bi-focal headlights, full width rear bumper, self levelling washer bottle contents and audible 'tick tock' indicator stalk
911 GT3 had one [never]
R8 V12 just gone [past me]

Hi Will,
Hope I am not teaching you to suck eggs here, but do you know how to give the car a quick detail which will get rid of the dust and pollen?
Very simple really. A quick go over with your pressure washer or hose, making sure you get rid of any grit or dirt.
Leaving water on the car spray with a QD, I normally dilute 50:50 with water:

Wipe over to dry using:

If you want that really deep shine then I use this on top of the QD:

Put on and polish off with a couple of these micro fibre cloths:

Always worth remembering that you don't even need water when you use QD. But you must have a good supply of towels and micro fibre cloths. BUT they must be good quality. Don't go to the DIY store or supermarket and get them, they are soooo not the same product.
Best regards
Chris
