First car I have cleaned on a regular basis, previously I let them clean it at the service lol

That dragon’s blood is helping shift the ingrained brake dust left by the previous owner. The visible part of the calliper starting to lose the rust colour. The supaguard stuff never had any effect on it.

I have a feeling if carry on with this stuff it will get them back to normal. Or I might make a diy blaster and use ground walnut shells.

The dragons blood is doing the trick. The callipers are nearly back to the original colour [emoji2]

Shame the weather wasn’t cooperating so I couldn’t do the rest. Wash, wax and rain x.

Rare reprieve from the storm, sunny with a chill wind today 😎

Thought, I whip out the internal glass cleaner G6 Perfect Glass (GTechniq):

I’m amazed by how many times I have cleaned this car lol
Normally the other cars were cleaned when I had the service done.
Almost tempted to take the wheels of off one by one and give them a real good clean with the dragons blood. Also get the callipers nice and even.

Don’t know if the rain x I have is useless or m not applying it properly.

Does it help prevent it misting up?

You just love it to bits, Ant! :inlove:

 

Rain-X is good, last a bit - dependent how well u apply it and how often wipers are used... 🤔

 

I got lazy, and now only use Rain-X 2-in-1 (easy to apply, but not last that long!)

But, each to their own!

Mines the 2 in 1 and I think the other was better.

I'm not having much luck, looks like somebody has pinched the cover of the bottom of my nearside mirror.

Lets say it was involved in an accident and the insurer decided to write it off...😞

Bought an oem mirror as that bit isn’t available on its own. Tried to fit it but I couldn’t get it to fit the original mirror. 
 

I’ll end up getting Toyota to replace the mirror and I’ll keep the old for parts.
