Magic Wax on M35

I've been taking care of this car since brand new. Polish it about twice a year. The owner takes very very good care of it. Gets waxed every 10 to 12 weeks by me.

For a change I was able to detail it at his house instead of his job. However he was leaving for florida at 11am so al I had was 2 hours
Process:

Optimum wash
Megs red clay
Ez Creme glaze pc 6 white pad
Magic Wax pc white pad pc 5

Enjoy!

Re: Smart Wax on M35

That is really close if not identical to souveran... To my eye from the pics*. How long have you been using the smartwax? Does it hold up pretty well? I saw it on autopia-carcare and it kind of caught my interest as there isnt much talk about it.

Re: Smart Wax on M35

Looks great Thomas! The M35/45 have grown to be quite appealing to me. Just wish the price wasnt "up there" lol

Nice work as always, Thomas.

Don't you just love customers who take good care of their cars and call you out regularly?

Re: Smart Wax on M35

SmartWax is a cleaner wax, so would have removed EZ-G.

Re: Smart Wax on M35

Tom,

That M looks absolutely stunning. Love the car and the detail! Have you ever tried Danase's Wet Glaze? I here it is similar to EZ Creme.
