Some of you saw or posted in my thread concerning the life spen (lack there of) of FMJ, and we've determined that I botched it up, somewhere.
So my friend (98 Vette, red) has been bothering me for about 2 years to detail his car after he saw my results (horrible, imo) on my old Grand Am. So Tomorow I'll be finaly doing this.
Here's my plan of attack:
Clean wheels with DP jell
Wash car twice with Dawn
Glass polish with DP glass stuff
Clay bar, then wash with Dawn
SSR2.5 ofr 1, depending on how bad it is
Wash with alcohol mixture
Poorboys polish
Wash with alcohol mixture
FMJ
Wash with car soap
Wax wheels with DP tire jell
Wheel dressing
I cant seem to find the specifics about cleaning products off with alcohol. Do I spray it on and use a MF to remove it, or do i do the
50/50 in a bucket and the usual car wash device (mitt, mf dogbone) to wash? If I do the spray technique, should I do a regular soap wash?
In regards to washing, is it proper to use Dawn for ALL washing up to the sealant / wax? Or should that only be used for the first wash to strip the car of any wax? Thanks
