    Time for full detail. Any tips appreciated!

    Ok fellow PB buddies. I have been reading the forums for awhile now and tried to collect as much knowledge as I can. I am just waiting for most of my products to come in. Here is what im going to do.

    Wash
    Clay
    -SSR2.5 w/ LC white or orange (depending if i need more bite) speed 5
    -SSR1 w/ LC white speed 5
    -Black Hole w/ LC black speed 3 do i prime pad?
    -EX Sealant w/ LC black or blue? which pad should I use? do i prime pad? (wait 1-2 days til EX cures then apply natty)
    -Natty Blue w/ foam applicator or mf sponge? do i prime the foam pad or mf sponge? any tips on application of natty?

    Ill be sure to post before and after pics. I might leave the BH step out if i dont have much time. I am going to have my hands full since my truck is lifted. At least I can clean the undercarriage a bit easier!

    Don`t be afraid of speed 6 with the SSR`s.

    I didn`t prime the pad when using Black Hole and the results were great.

    I use foam applicators with the Natty`s wax.

    LC Blue or red. Definitely use speed 6 for the SSRs.

    -Black Hole w/ LC black speed 3 do i prime pad? I would prime the pad its always a good thing to do. Just remember to keep it around speed 2 or 3
    -EX Sealant w/ LC black or blue? which pad should I use? Whichever they are both finishing pads do i prime pad? yup same reason (wait 1-2 days til EX cures then apply natty) right on
    -Natty Blue w/ foam applicator or mf sponge? do i prime the foam pad or mf sponge? no need to prime the applicator it will be primed when you put it in the tub. One thing i do recommend is to make the applicator damp with water. Run it under water then just give it a quick squeeze (directions on the tub of wax) any tips on application of natty? I usually go back and fourth or you can do SMALL circles

    Ill be sure to post before and after pics. You better
    hope that helped 1 high bald guy
