What Andreas doesn't mention: these are his "before" photographs.

I'd be happy if he just did my laundry

Are you going full or street?? If full, you'd better put that tray back on.

I see a spot.

Seriously, that's amazing. Don't let the tire treads get dirty.

For the unintiated, is there a particularly good thread in the concours section that would explain what products you used on what (aside from an industrial sized vat of elbow grease)?

I wouldn't ever want to buff my car to this obsessive compulsive extent, but knowing how to take care of specific problems would be really helpful.

A clean car is the product of a sick mind... which makes Andreas ____.

I have seen ths with one of my neighbors ,he has a BMW Z3M coupe that started cleaning it about a year ago and has not stopped ,He has won various prizes, but he has stopped using the car apart from driving to shows ,Is that the case with most of these concourse cars ?,dont get me wrong I love having a clean car that stands out from the crowd but Its a fantastic driving machine that built like a tank and crys out to be driven ,so my question to Andreas is how many miles a year do you drive it
