I am getting a new Pathfinder, black. I know that it won`t be satisfactory when I get it from the dealer and wondered if since if using Meguires 3 step process would be too soon or should I just use the Gold class wax. I think I would do all the steps by hand since I do not have a buffer yet, or should I get one to ensure that the first time I clean it, in step 1, I get any over spray and debris off the paint that may have gotten on the paint from the fatory and during the transport process. I say Meguires because I already have those products on hand, but am open to anything that will yield good results.
I also have a queston on terry towels. Would using fabric softener help when washing the towels to ensure that they don`t scratch the paint or is washing and drying sufficient? Also if I get new towels should I wash them first before I use them on the vehilce or can I start using them straight from the store, or at least run them through the dryer to avoid unecessary lint?
