i do the windows before i wash it, its the meguires gold class that makes them shiney. yeah you can wax the windows, its good too coz it makes rain just slide off.
get it undersealed
I really need to give mine a good clean some day very soon

Ive got the PIAA silcone wipers which seems to leave a protective layer on the windscreen which really helps to bead the rain and get it off fast..
Quote from: Markget it undersealed
yep getting a load of waxoyl next week, so thatll be done next weekend.
quite supprised/shocked as to the lack of underseal. cost cutting in the final months i guess :(
Ive being cleaning myn once a week detail once a week spray off and wipe down. Just to cure bordem over the past few weeks :D
