Well, the Army is sending me to Ft Bliss, in El Paso, TX so I will no longer have my garage and no real place to detail my Audi. My question is this... What should I use for my last real detail here? I have the following producs, and I would like to get something that will look great and last me a while...



I have the following:



Blackfire

WG DGPS

FMJ

FTG

IP

FP II

UPP

S100

Souveran

Meg's #16

Meg's #26

NXT

3M Show It Wax

VM

RMG

YCW

CMW

Thanks!
 
Yeah, same here- multiple layers of one of the sealants topped with #16. Hope your stay in TX goes OK. Is this a permanent move?
 
it is not a permanent move as of yet... but we will see. The ARMY does strange things sometimes...





Ok. Now, would CMW be considered a sealent?



Also, what would be the best way to "prep" the car? VM, #7, FTG, RMG, YCW, etc...???
 
If you're gonna be there a long time you might want to figure out a plan for the car's long term detailing needs ;)



This time around, considering how important durability is gonna be, I don't think I'd use a glaze under the sealant. Just something to take off what's currently on there (maybe the FPII or maybe VM) then the UPP/WG/FMJ, as many layers as you can, then the #16, also as many as you can.



I dunno from CMW, see what others say.
 
Yeah just apply several layers of sealant, and several coats of #16. Just try to get as many layers of LSP on as you can.



CMW stands for Carnauba Moose Wax doesn't it? So it's a wax, not a sealant. Fo course that's only if the product is labeled correctly as far as wax/sealant/polish/etc...
 
The only reason I ask about the CMW is because ScottWax had mentioned that he got like 6 mosfrom it... just wondering... lol



I am going to go for the ultrawet look so I will probably go FMJ/#16 and keep the CMW for quick wax jobs later on. The ease of use will make it IDEAL for where I will be...
 
Durability/Protection is MOST important at Fort Bliss--sand storms are the norm. The "dirt" is coarse sand. Put as many protective layers as you can. The flying bits of rock also wreck havoc.
