So today was spent cleaning and protecting the roof, but it stained the paint slightly, so it led me to do a complete overhaul on the car's paintwork. Which turned out to be brilliant.

What I did:

- Roof pressure washed
- Cleaned using AutoGlym cleaner
- Protected using AutoGlym protection
- Wheels cleaned and waxed
- Body pressure washed
- Washed using AutoGlym Shampoo
- Rinsed and dried
- Meguiars clay bar with AutoGlym Rapid Detailer
- Polished using AutoGlym Super Resin Polish
- Sealed using AutoGlym Extra Gloss Protection Sealant

This was the dirt that came off the roof:



I've never clay'd a car before. This was the dirt off just a door, even when the car was washed and dried perfectly:



And here's the result, sorry there aren't anymore photos!





And a video showing the reflection:

It's outstanding. I've never seen paint in as good condition as this

The roof came up really good too. Sorry there aren't any photos, it took me 6 hours to do this today so I was shattered after it!

Managed to get a nicer shot of the footwell lights though:
