A 4 hour clean! That's about how much time I spend washing my car per year! :oops:

That's the advantage of having it machine polished from new and ceramic coated.
In short I used:
a) Turtle wax snow foam twice (jet washed after each application)
b) Bilt Hamber alloy wheel cleaner (jet washed after application)
c) 2 bucket wash with microfibre noodle wash mitt (jet washed after application)
d) Dried using a 2ply microfibre drying cloth 60x60cm 800gsm from Dodo Juice
e) Britemax Remax SiO2 spray sealant to remove water spots because in Hampshire the water is excessively hard (so hard that I'm looking at buying a water softener, in part because of this, but our bathroom is in the initial stages of a complete rebuild & I also have a top end prosumer espresso machine.

This is the bathroom as of the end of today:
