Wow, that really is stunning.
One day I hope Henry will look that tidy (I have a good base to work from though, so fingers crossed)

Looks great, so the big two questions are:

1) How did you clean it / what products did you use?

2) Can we all come to NETTIE's car cleaning service to get ours done? :D

It may just be the photograph (colour is always difficult to determine from a photo) but that looks too light to to be BRG.
