Hello all, just found this awesome forum a week ago, just in time for my brand new BLACK Acura. Let me start by saying, I've read the Ebook and have compiled my own crib notes using the search button and by just browsing the forums. After doing so, I went out and bought the following items:
1. Mothers Clay bar
2.
Meguiars #7
3.
Meguiars #26
I did my first detail on the car this morning and have a few questions on the process and or getting betting results.
After washing my car this morning, I did the celaphane bag trip, and (suprisingly) felt no bumps, so I skipped the clay bar and went straight to #7 and then #26. I let both dry to a light haze and buffed out. My results were pretty good and the car does look very wet, but....
1. I can't imagine doing this by hand a monthly basis. I'm in Texas so it gets awfully hot and sweaty. Is there a recommended buffer (PC) that I can get locally that a newbie could use without getting into trouble? I have no scratches so, just need to apply and buff with it.
2. I passed on the Zaino, just because I wanted the "wet" look on my Black, and have read here that Zaino "probably" isn't the best for my color.
3. I'm still unsure of my process. Should it be wash, seal, wax? If so, then I did wash, glaze/polish, wax. Should I go back and seal then wax?
4. Keeping in mind this is a new car with no swirls or scratches, how would I benefit from OR integrate into my process:
Klasse,
Blackfire, or S100? I read so much positive about this stuff.
Thanks for any help and guidance... I realize a lot of this is personal preference, and because of this there is so much conflicting information that I'm having trouble sorting through it all...
Thanks again - mo
