Car cleaning, Lummox and Bengie style, did we get it right?

Lummox · 26-04-2008, 23:33

As I had spent the afternoon toiling under Bengie's ambulance he came back to my house and helped wash the Lummox fleet (actually cleaning the Escort was his idea not mine). Did we get it right?

Two cars

One bucket

The two car method I believe its called.

Then he got carried away and tried to polish rust, bless him. Didnt come out to bad though considering...

Few scabs but they add charater and its all about the hoodride baby. Now fit to run the parents to Gatwick in the a.m.

did you also look at the car wash method, its pretty good on the older cars and removes the rust and other loose debris. also gives it a great swirl look as if its been tampered by westwood and the pimp my ride team

Nah car wash costs money, Bengie is free

Would you do a pro valet on my car and how much would it cost?

Lummox · 27-04-2008, 13:38

Bengie is free, however far from pro

Having said that he is a darn site better than me.

Forgot about the head injuries..

You'll hopefully have completed the cars without inducing blood stains.
