I hope you do not make the same mistake that I did. I used Griot's polisher. My car is laguna blue and for my trouble I got nice swirls and a few scratches as well. So here simplified, is the very complicated process of how to clean your new stingray. Do not use a buffer. I did and it was bad. So I consulted with a guy who it takes over a month to get onto his schedule. His credentials are over the moon. People ship him cars from all over the US. The last car he detailed sold for over $9 million dollars. So someone trusted him with a Picasso in essence. 1. Spray the car with max force to remove surface dirt. 2. Beginning on the bottom, wash up to rocker panels with wet microfiber rag while holding hose with running water over the rag. 3. Rinse with soft spray. 4. Start on top of the car and repeat working down. Change rag often if car is really dirty Rinse as you go along. 5. With very slow flow rinse entire car with sheets of water. This will leave only a few beads on the car. 6. Dry with soft cotton or microfiber… Wax car once a year. Do not use soap of any kind. It just takes the wax off faster. Try this before before you invest in anything more than a really good Carnuba wax.
As my dear departed German car nut father would say as he complained about American mechanics etc "Vye zo komlikated? Make Dass vary Zimple, vary Eesie" It is going to cost me $1000 to get my car back to almost new. If you insist on buying a buffer and all kind of other chemicals I have a low miles Griot and a cabinet full of cans, jars and bottles that I will sell you cheap. No offense but claying a new car. Do so at your own peril. Clay picks up harmful grit and moves it to another part of your car. Leave that stuff to the pros. Besides you will not need it for ten years. Please understand that I am not interested in starting a war here but I could cry when I look at the flaws I put in my car by being over enthusiastic. In fact i am looking forward to 2017 when I can trade this in and start over : - (
