A friend of mine`s selling his Toyota Surf and wanted to tart it up a bit to aid in the sale. He said there was no point in going overboard, so we didn`t! It got:
EXTERIOR:
Hyper Wash
Safe D-Greaser to tyres and arches
(Wheels got a quick P21S, but they`re knackered so not much point really)
#80
NXT
AG Glass polish then NXT All Metal Polysh on chrome
NXT Glass Cleaner
AG Bumper Care on all trim
Armourall Insane Tyre Dressing (experiment!)
INTERIOR:
Vacuum
Autosmart Bio-Brisk then steamed (except headlining)
APC 10:1 and AG Super Sheen on vinyl
NXT Glass Cleaner

The most impressive clean-up though was the headlining. His brother`s a smoker and drove this car for a few years before he got his hands on it. The headlining was heavily stained with nicotine so I thought I`d give Autosmart`s Bio-Brisk a go. The results speak for themselves - it`s one seriously good and effective product.
(The light`s not dirty - the heat from the bulb has actually burnt the plastic)

In total it took the both of us a little over six hours, which I didn`t think was too bad considering how dirty it was to start with.
