Yep I'm totally OCD with our cars. (G30 and F48 prior E92)

These cloths are a brilliant addition to my G Techniq suite of products.

Only other item I use is Maguires hot wheels for side walls.

Loving the 3/6 month ceramic coatings at the moment as I enjoy detailing so prefer a new coat every 4 months vs a 3 year coating that is gradually becoming less effective.

👍👍

Stick a class protector on the idrive screen they are completely invisible and no more worrying when touching it to clean or using the touch controls.

Can be had on eBay or Amazon for very little.

Pity same can't be got for pre LCI instrument panels.

QUOTE=packet;28475267]I've had good luck with microfiber cloth on the wood trim etc.

a soft gentle wipe worked on the center screen too (i don't touch it anyway though...)[/QUOTE]

Did a coat of Gtechniq C2V3 today. Even on the wheels. Might be the best product I've ever used.

I'm going to try the ECV3 with the hose attachments got some in a Christmas hamper present!!

Hope it makes it easier in winter to apply top up coats and use the better stuff in summer when I can get out to the car.

Hopefully will get easier in winter as I'm moving house and the new place has huge garage.. time to go crazy with lighting, two post lift, BMW stripes on the wall and rubberised floor. My OCD is gonna have a field day!! 😂

Thanks Mark!

Hey what do you think of my amber reflector "delete"? I today forget I did this until I looked at the picture and thought to myself, something is different.
