I always clean my car before i wax. Take it to car wash and spend about $6-$8. I go around thoroughly. Also wash the underside edge of the car where it is pretty much black.
Ever since i bought the mothers wax attack machine, my car is still smooth and shiny after one month. It rained during that time and all i did was take it to the car wash and rinsed the car...
I polished and waxed my car about 3 weeks ago. In that time, it rained a few days so i took it for a quick rinse but went around the whole car thoroughly with a cloth. I didnt use any high pressure...
Well, assuming it has rained and car is still mint from major polish/wax. Looking to use something for inbetween maintenance. I will give the Pledge Grab it duster a try before applying the...
For me Quik Detailer, I assume youre talking about meguiars, is easy to remove. It is just like water. QuikWax on the other hand is a thicker liquid also from meguiars, where it will turn hard if...
But QuikDetailer is just like water. How does it get hard? Or are you getting mixed up with QuikWax cos thats the one that goes hard. So using a microfibre dust magnet will not scratch the car...
Is it worth doing a quick wax inbetween the major wax/polish periods? I was thinking of getting meguiars quikwax. Whats the best way of cleaning the car before applying the quikwax other than...
Only drove it up the road to wash the car then back home in the garage. So car is relatively cool. Waited about 30min before commencing polish/wax process. Opened a brand new bottle. Shook it...
Maybe less than that. I dont know how long the circumference of the mothers wax pad is. I squeeze out a thin strip so that it sits into the groove of the pad. Thinking more closely, probably more...
I apply only a small amout per section (e.g. 1 door, bonnet). Probably about a 30cm line. Its buffed out evenly with my wax attack machine. Maybe i got a lemon deep crystal step 2 :(
im using the meguiars 2 step polish. According to Aarong, it doesnt remove any layers of paint.
If i leave the techwax for 5 min to dry, it is harder to remove. Not as hard as polish, but still...
wow, i thought 1 min was quick for polish. Ok, next time ill apply then wipe off straight away. Will it be ok to use the same buffing pad for wax after applying polish? Or best to get a new pad to...
I used the 2 step polish by Meguiars. Polished the bonnet and left it for about 5 min, impossible to remove with a towel. Then I polished one door, waited 1 min, still hard to remove.
I use the...
ive tried using meguiars polish and its so hard to remove with a towel after you apply. Are you meant to remove the polish? Or do you just go from:
WASH -> CHAMOIS -> POLISH -> LEAVE POLISH ON FOR...
so u wash ur car every week? Wouldnt the sand/dirt on the car scratch the paint? LOL, i think i should have said every month rather than every weekend cos now washing the car is more tiring than...
Bought the mothers wax attack machine a few weeks back and used it for the first time today. OMFG, buffing was a breeze. Buffed the whole car in 35 min including wiping off the wax. One thing i...
Usually this is how i was the car:
1. put $2 using high pressure soap, angle the gun from top and aim downwards to remove all the crap.
2. put $2 using low rinse, aim the gun and wipe at the same...
Too scared to use an auto buffer. Ill just stick to a manual one (me). Btw, i bought 3 of those Meguiars Supreme Shine Microfibre Cloth. I gave them a quick wash. Damn they absorb so much. ...
Going back a few steps, is there any point in using Meguiars Deep Crystal Polish TWO STEP SYSTEM to polish my car after washing, then wax? Or just go straight from wash to Meguiars techwax? I know...
I was thinking of getting a machine to polish/wax car. But whats stopping me is that ive been reading that if you dont know the technique, you will scratch the crap out of your car. :eek: I dont...
