Took the car out for a hoon yesterday. Was out in the rain for an hour. Parked up in the garage still wet and today, apart from where I'd cleaned off some bird crap the whole car is still shiny bare metal

It's great for cleaning up interior plastic panels as well! My dashboard has been rejuvenated with a few wipes of Gibbs

Cool.
How long does each applicaiton last?

Is it like foreplay - once every 4 years?

Really stupid question time........

How do you apply it to the body?

Do you just spray and leave or do you massage it into the paint (like wax/polish)?

MilesnMiles · Post by **MilesnMiles** » Fri Nov 09, 12 3:03 pm

Spary it on, apply lightly with paper towel. Let it go off for a couple of days. Its then dry to touch, just leaves a light sheen. Re appply if a) rust appears
b) water stops beading on it.
Spary liberall into/onto underside and chassis
Dave81, if you look under the front wings on the Dart I'm sure you'll see dark patches where I sprayed Gibbs on there as well as elsewhere.
It's not a miracle worker, but its good insurance.
If you have good paint, use good wax, not Gibbs!
