Default Bad, Dirty, Grimy Paint on Rover..Best cleaning products

Hi All,

Just purchased a Rover and she needs some cleaning. Interested in what to use to remove grime, and "all the above", from the exterior paint. Want to clean her up and make her look like the respectable Rover she is...Thanks Scott

If you visit wwww.landroversonly.com there is a section strictly devoted to detailing Rovers. Lots of useful information within that section.

There are several excellent products available at almost any of the larger chains such as PepBoys. Mothers makes all kinds of great detailing products and equipment. Check them out.

I think the last time I washed my truck was...I cant remember.
Oh, wait, it rained 2 nights ago, big storms, flooded my driveway, does that count?

I pressure washed mine right after getting it. Since then only the rain has washed it...

I have to say I only use Duragloss Car Wash Soap. I can get it a WalMart or some of the Carquest Auto Parts. I detail several cars for people and this is the only car wash that makes a car look as if it washed and waxed. A little goes a long way with it also. People have there own opinons on what to use but Duragloss is tops on my list
