    My new 2013 Accord Coupe

    Did not pass the baggie test so:
    1. clay with lube
    2. Blackfire Total polish and seal - using orbital and grey pad
    3. Two coats Blackfire crystal seal 4 hours apart - wheels too
    4. Wolffgang Spray Spritz sealant as a topper
    looks nice:

    Thanks guys, I`m getting too old to do a lot of bending and stretching - the thing I love about this combo is 2 out of 3 of the operations are wipe-wipe off - from now on, it`ll just be a wash of some type and CS/spritz every 60 days.....

    Now a question from an amateur detailer, what is the baggie test? I am still new to detailing a car the correct way and have to ask when I see something new.

    the baggie test is what you do to find out if your paint has contaminates on it. the easiest way to tell is to put your hand in a sandwich baggie and rub it across your paint. if you feel bumps and then paint needs to be clayed
