White cars are harder to clean I agree.

Firstly it's not rubbish,it's what I have found from my expiriance with a white car.Secondly whilst I wouldn't profess to know everything about cleaning cars,I can tell you my cars and vans all get the same treatment.When we collected the BMW it was stripped of any product,clayed,polished using a rotary and da and various well respected products.Then when finally happy with the paint finish Hd wax applied.I will happily admit I am maybe a tad anal re.vehicle cleaning Embarassed But I enjoy it and it relaxes me after work,hence you would find me cleaning something 5 days out of 7 if not more.So yes I believe I can do it properly and still stand by my statement that white is a nightmare.

Ive had 2 white Range Rover sports 2 Black Land Rovers (one on the drive), Two Green Land Rovers (one on the drive) and one blue ford all in the last 5 years (ignoring cars before) and the whites are by far the easier cars to was.

I would say that it maybe to do with them having lifeshine and supaguard on (although the black's did/do) - i might say that its because i always add 1 layer of polish (sometimes 2) to the cars...but The white cars are not more difficult to clean if you clean then half right and do it half frequently...an i have anal high definition eyes! Thumbs Up

Ford's and blues are a royal pain to clean and do get more tarred...but then they have never had supaguard or lifeshine which does work really well - even though i still add polish to them Mike
