Hopeflly this will make the car look even better then new.


so what do you use. any tips on washing polishing waxing? any info will be much appreciated. thanks

 

meguiars. period, nothing else. i use the cleaner wax w/ carnuba. take your time, pay attention to detail.

 

This will take forever. So instead, Go here and start reading-www.autopia.org Then click on learn at the top.

 

while meguiars is by no means shitty, it is certainly not "the good ****" either. at least not the 3 step detailing system.

ok so basically polishing takes off your clear coat . making the car nicer looing. but wont that result in very low clear coat over a few years?
is so im thinking about skipping polishing and just buying a cleaner ( still have to do some research on them) and then just waxing.

 

tons of articles on autopia.org as well

 

If you skip the polishing part you will not get rid of your swirl marks. The whole point of the polishing is the even out the paint to remove swirl marks and fine scratches from your car. Do some research on meguiarsonline forum and you will find a wealth of knowledge from professionals.

1. Wash
2. Clay
3. Prep
4. Polish/Cleaner
5. Seal
