What did I learn in all this? Other than my car really didn`t need a clay bar and glazes do make a difference.... I learned I need a buffer or my arms are going on strike.

Your car really wasn`t that dirty



Car looks great! :up



I am confused about your comments though...did you just use Vanilla Moose or did you also top it with S100? Your caption on the last pic doesn`t mention S100.

So far I do. Is gives the car a much glassier feel then it had with jstu wax. Surface is much slicker now too. Still a little hint of vanilla smell too.

I don`t think a buffer is needed. When i first started i used to get way tired about 1/2 way through a single car. After more practice your arms start getting more than used to it. Now i can do 3 full jobs in one day (12 hours or so) and not even realize that my arms used to get tired.

shishcobob, the first pic looks pretty good with just the S100 but I like seeing the slight difference that the VM gave it. Nice car and nice job.

I don`t do it often enough to build of the stamina in my arms.

Yep. You can get a new two story with basement and 2-3 car garage over here for less than half of what you stated. Starting to go up though.
