Newbie to detailing about poorboys

[pkchung987]

hello i am a total newbie to car detailing and do not know a single thing... by reading some threads i thought the poorboys brand was a good choice so i was thinking of buying their polish... it says that it cleans and polishes at the same time? if thats true then i dont need any "pre" cleading or anything right? also whats the difference btwn wax and polish? do i need to polish then wax? i just purchases a mazda 3 and i am looking for a product that is easy to apply and yet is potent to last to protect my car... i dont understand half of the things you guys are talking about so please be blunt and straight forward ^^ also where to purchase the items? what are the cheapest and good applicator/dryer? where to get them??!??!

so sorry for so many stupid questions but i really have no idea.. =( thanks for everyone who took the time to read ths far!

Polish = clean
Wax = protect

It sounds like you are looking for a one-step type product. And you like the Poorboy`s line. A lot of people suggest Polish with Carnauba(PwC) from Poorboy`s.

You can also get applicators and MicroFiber cloths from any of the online sponsors here. Just click the links to any of them in the Sponsor box on the homepage. Good luck shopping!!
