After 4-5 days in the garage 6-8 hours claying, polishing and waxing and top coating in the garage i am not having some sore throat aand the last couple morning ive been hacking and hacking.



Do you guys have this problem or do you guys do all your car detailing outdoors
 
Well I suppose you could have been exposed to lots of VOCs and polishing dust, neither of which would be beneficial to your lungs. I don't think it's a big deal, and I think after a couple days you should be fine.



I've never had this problem myself, and I wax my car in the closed garage all the time. But I try to polish outside if possible, to avoid standing in a cloud of dust.
 
You should be fine assuming you were using products that did not have any specific warnings against inhalation or proper ventilation. Is there a possibility that you are coming down with a cold?
 
This might be a stupid question, but did you drink enough water while you were working your tail off?
