Long term process

[moparman363]

Hi guy`s, I want to polish my wifes car up real nice, but I`ll never be able to have it for more than a few hours before she drives it away from me.

I am wondering if I should only clay, polish, and seal the panels I`ll be able to finish? Can I clay the whole car, polish what I can, and seal up everything, and pick up where I left off? Your feedback is appreciated.

I`d approach it differently- I`d do the car in sections over the course of a few washes. Wash the car, clay/polish/LSP a panel or two. Next wash do a few more panels and repeat this until you get the whole thing done. I`ve used this approach countless times on vehicles I couldn`t keep off the road for extended periods. Once you get it all done, at the *next* wash give the whole thing another coat of LSP.

Thank`s Accumulator, So I shouldn`t wax or put sealant on the area`s I couldn`t polish?

hehe, i use accumulators exact process for my own car due to time constraints from work and home life. Spreads out spring detailing over a month but it gets done, and gets done right (no rushing or skipped steps).
