New Car - Car Show Prep...HELP PLEASE!!
Hey Guys, just picked up my new car as some here know....I have a car show I need to get my baby ready for March 5,6,7....getting product here takes a few weeks and need to plan my full aersonal now......If you had a brand new car and nothing on your shelf and need to get it 100% perfect for an indoor show what would you buy. The paint is not in the greatest condition for a new car.
I am talking Clay, Polish, Wax, Glaze, Trim Shine, Wheels and Tire cleaner, glass, PC Pads for each application, etc...the works. I know this is something i need to plan my self but dont have much time and cant overlook anything. The vehicle is black.
thanks all....

I hope that those are in no order 
Products look pretty good, but everyone has personal preferences.

New car paint should be almost swirl free so I'd do this:
Wash
Clay
SMR
AIO
SG
Wax
All the other stuff
As long as you can get the paint mostly swirl free, it'll look great for the show. Its the details that'll make it stand out so focus on them.

Sorry about the broken-record routine ... but ... if I were in this situation, I'd read thru the Car Shows/Concours forum, and some other forums, proving that I could do my homework before asking folks to spoonfeed me with subjective info.

This is a new car but has been wiped down dry to try and get any salt spray from the truck off it quickly with a QD
Looks like smuging but who knows
