hello...im pretty new to the whole detailing scene and to this site. i come on here occasionally to pick up a few tips and its been really helpful so far!
my name`s nikki and im only 18, so i really dont have the financial means to use most of the products you talk about on here...im pretty much limited to the best i can find on the shelf at pep boys or autozone
i drive a 98 jetta vr6, tornado red. its a gorgeous color, and i wash it regularly and treat it with meguiars cleaners wax. well recently i started getting more into it after getting a clay bar kit and tons more supplies for my birthday. the clay did an excellent job of getting off 6 years worth of grime and tar, but brought out so many more problems in the paint. swirls....SO MANY swirls and scratches everywhere. and as most of you know when you start things like this you become obssessed and have to get it perfect!
i dont think the scratches are that deep but there are definitely plenty of them, so what over-the-counter products can i use (by hand) to make it look even better? the paint shines pretty well....there are many chips in it (hail storms) and my car isn`t garaged (we dont have one) so it never will look PERFECT.
but i am here to learn and its looking better everytime so i appreciate all the help!
