How do you earn your penny sweet and football sticker money?

[@realfacthunt]

I was lucky enough to retire to Thailand at 50, I worked in music. Been subbed for a couple of years to the channel and enjoy your vids but I have to be honest, I have never washed my own car and I have no intention of starting now!

[@MrHoarses]

Hopefully doing as you do, a workplace injury has left me in need of a career change. Are you available for some advice?

[@y4nnickschmitt]

With washing the neighbors car for 30 pounds actually.... However that does include in- and exterior.

[@D0DG3R]

Well if we're talking about penny sweets then you and I both know the customer having their very old fiesta cleaned is within the 60+ age range, but I do have a customer who is 78 years old who lives across the street and I tend to his car and have all the moss within all cracks, it to sits outside on his drive for the most part but I make sure to do the absolute best in cleaning it up to make it spotlessly clean both inside and out and apply a sealant which lasts 6+ months, obviously the paint work is kept for the most part, nice except the lower portions due to our lovely British weather but it does help and anyone in the know will see it's protected, I last cleaned his vehicle around 5 months ago now but I actually have a good view of it from my window and it's looking clean as if I just did it, that's how much he drives it, I do get told every time it looks brand new from when he purchased it from the dealer so although it's not the price I would charge others for the valet, having and keeping him happy for a car that looks clean and protected gives me a sense of joy others wouldn't give so I'm happy to reduce the price as his gratitude exceeds any monetary value.

[@Namnodnol]

On older cars with flat paintwork I've started using Angelwax's Blue Rinse. After the final rinse spray it over the whole car through a snow foam lance and its hydrophobic qualities will immediately start reducing the surface water and at the same time add a layer of protection. Let it dwell for a few minutes then dry as normal. It's durable too lasting at least 4-6 weeks at this time of year.

[@feedingfrenzy123]

Little gem that car. Love how it's still got the original dealer plates

[@paul1978g]

It might be a little old and a little ordinary, but I LOVE this shape of Fiesta. I'd sooner own and drive this than the Nissan 350Z in the background. Great job bringing it up to a respectable standard with enviable ease. You always make these jobs look so much easier than they are. Thank you for posting, i love to see the older "pride and joy" cars take a bath.

[@joshgreaves9934]

That’s so reminiscent of washing my caravan. Plenty of green, and crud around the inside of the windows. It was just missing the black streaks! Brilliant video, lovely little Fiesta there. I reckon it’s begging for a machine polish in spring.

[@FragGile]

All that crap coming out of the window seals and roof trim was porn.

Lmao! Agreed. There's something about that which is awesome to me. Every 'new' car I acquire I'm simultaneously annoyed, delighted and satiated by scooshing out all the years worth of crap out the unloved arches, especially the rears!

[@carlosandleon]

kinky

[@wheelerd02]

I had one of these as my first car, a 1999 5 door Ghia 1.25. Wood dash trim, electric windows & mirrors,colour coded bumpers, 4 speaker cassette, heated front screen, air con and front fogs. I had an immense amount of fun in that car. Quite an adequate amount of power even in today's terms. 75hp out of 1200cc is impressive especially as the engine originated in 1996. That car taught me a lot and I did 30/40000+ miles in the 3 years I had it. Brilliant fun and would consider one again as a cheap hack. Kids these days don't need a brand new turbo car on finance once they pass their test. A basic little car like this is safe enough and will make them appreciate modern cars more.

[@SteveHainesCounsellor]

[@AlexGreenwoodUkulele]

I'm amazed how good the arches on this are! They're usually the first thing to (quite literally) disappear due to the good ol' Ford Corrosion. :D

[@rkan2]

If it has been washed quarterly, then it has been washed about every 300 miles lol

[@AlexGreenwoodUkulele]

@@rkan2 Ye but doesn't stop the corrosion, it usually happens on the inside of the arches and works it's way out, or when stones flick up, it chips the paint around the arch and allows corrosion to set in. Along the sills underneath as well, they get a fair bit of standing water and corrode.

[@jonathanholland6658]

Its fab watching you do a more affordable day to day car for a change. I imagine most people who watch your videos are like me, seeing how we can apply the tips and products on our pride and joy. to see them done on a similar car is great. Keep up the fab work and look forward to your next video

What a great valet for 20 quid. Deffo a committed valet...... actually really likes this video that was a proper deep clean. Could literally see the dirty water rinsing off. Doesn't have to be a fancy car to be some ones pride and joy and I bet the owner appreciates that level of valet very much.
