Brilliant :) One last question, sorry mate but promise this will be the last one :)
can I use my hair dryer to sort of dry the baby oil and buff afterwards? Mine has different heat settings and even a cool button.

Also, I may be wrong but WD40 might work?

Cheers mate ;D

I've don't have hair to own a hair dryer ( bad at 23 years old haha ) but I can't see a problem with it

I've tried WD40 it's ok but not as good

I tried this with a DC24 the other day, and wasn't too impressed, and came here to mention this.

I then read your bit about 20 mins or longer, I think I waited about 5...

Will try again! Do you slap it on thick or a thin smear like car wax?

As thin as possible but enough to cover the inside and outside of bin

Leave 20 mins then buff off with tissue then with a microfibre it's a messy job but they look good

I tried it on my DC07 and sadly didn't work as well I was expecting, I found the result okay, but not as good as hairspray :|
