    Some great products listed in this video, a lot of which I use myself and I am the very epitome of hobbyist, to coin a phrase: good from far, but far from good 😁. One thing I would add is that its hard to discuss detailing on a budget without mentioning the words 'Bilt' and 'Hamber'. They make some phenomenal products and the value for money is up there with the best. They're also (very) slowly making their way to the high street which can only be a good thing for the average consumer.

    I thought that I didn't need a car dryer since I have a powerful leaf blower that could certainly do the job. But after using my blower to dry the car after a first wash, I have to say that your criticism of this piece of equipment is spot-on. While using the leaf blower carried at arm's length at your side is not a problem, lifting it to shoulder height to dry the roof or the hood (Oops! I mean bonnet) is entirely another matter. Powerful leaf blowers are heavy and not meant to be held and manipulated at heights. The nozzle and hose of a dedicated car dryer are considerably lighter and more manageable and therefore much more suited to car detailing.

    Minor point but get a bucket with a ribbed bottom as smooth ones can be slippery to empty. It makes grip easier. I’d also recommend a car blower to dry those pesky areas - grills, around lights, door handles, inside petrol filler flap, insignia etc. particularly if you live in a hard water area where limescale water deposits can form. Great advice, Heather. You are a great ambassador for the car cleaning and detailing world.

    Your voice is very nice to lie to and your accent is very proper. I know the UK does things a little differently from the US mainly the snow foams. Myself, I’m a rinseless wash guy with the sponge. It just works for me. But a good pre spray is essential like you said. You need to emulsify the grime and safely rinse away. Otherwise you’re taking that dirt and driving it into your paint at 1000+ psi. The snow foams work well and you need that lubrication. I like your buckets, the brushes they look awesome! I personally work for DIY Detail so a little biased 😂. But you use excellent products, and once you protect your vehicle it becomes easier to clean. I can’t wait to see the interior video!

    Euro Car Parts have 20ltr valeters buckets on offer for £4.99 at the moment, worth checking them as do have some big discounts on car care occasionally. Thanks for a great video

    Great video Heather. I have to say you make detailing a car look effortless. I’ve been doing my car for 8 yrs now. It’s only an A3 saloon, but on average takes around 6 hours to complete. Once I’m finished I am totally shattered… 🤣🤣🤣

    What I have found is the hose and trigger gun you get with the pressure washers are too stiff and need replacement. What recommendations do you have for a replacement 8-10m hose along with quick trigger gun ?
