I love this site. I have not had time to wash and wax my cars like I used to before my kids were born, but now that they are older and want to help washing. So I was using up my old store of car care products (turtle wax wash, Zymol wax) with their help. After visiting this site I can`t wait to get some Klasse AIO, Menzerna FMJ, P100, and the foamgun. I have an 2006 Honda Odyssey and a 1996 Chevy Impala SS and We washed and waxed the Odyssey. I can`t believe how good it looked after Zymol. I want to use clay on the impala since it has been some time since I have waxed it. I have some scratches on the trunklid from when my kids decideded to climb up there ( I know sacrilage). I was wondering what would be the best process for removing them. I will try and take pictures of the damage later, but for right now, here are some pictures of the odyssey after waxing:

Welcome. For starters read the free detailing guide here at Autopia. Then get a PC with a pad kit that comes with a backing plate. Of course ther is alot of other stuff to buy. Pick a good polish that suits your needs and polish away! :2thumbs:
