  • Sisters Nissan Micra

    Nissan Micra 1.2GS 1990
    This is my sisters car and she doesn’t think much of it, it wasn’t her first choice of car but my dad choose it as it only had 42,000 miles in late 2006 my dad a plumber used to work for its owner, who unfortunately must have be in early nineties died a year or two after buying it, and his wife would not sell it. My dad had always said that he would buy it if she was ever to sell it, she did eventually, it was cleaned weekly by the window cleaner even when it stopped being used.
    Its not had the best washing technique, my sister has no idea of the grit guard bucket or wash mitts, (a scratch-x’ed the whole thing once) but she is very neglectful, I can handle the exterior but the interior is disgusting.
    It was late and time was short so process was rinse and wash with Meguiars GC Shampoo, Grit guard and wash mitt and then Polished with Autoglym SRP, nice and simple as the sister wont reconise the differance.
    Before:



    That horrible interior (id help here with it but no tackling it on my own, the whole car is like that maybe worse, basically full of clothes, food, make up, shoes etc. Its one giant handbag for her.)

    A quick soak with some shampoo

    Afters: (was going dark)

    its lucky is such a light colour as u can see these too much in the day with all the glare from the sun.

      she was grateful in a way but she just doesn't understand why anyone cleans cars, 'if they work that's all that matters' i can recall hearing from here. She doesn't take that much pride in her car. Or could be that me and my dad wash all the cars.

      Thanx For the nice comments.

        Sounds like my brother, it gets clean when it rains. As far as the inside goes, it doesn't look that bad. Maybe I'm unlucky enough to have dealt with worse. I don't know how well you get a long with your sister, but detailing the inside would make for a nice gift for something like her birthday. I often give detailing as a gift.

        The car looks great after your work.

          If you did a complete detail as a gift for her, Maybe seeing how clean it is would change her mind....? One can hope. You did a good exterior wash. Looks good.
          quality creates its own demand
