My steps are:
-Wash (I used only Meguiar's stuff, either Gold Class wash, Ultimate Wash & Wax, or their NXT Wash). I wash a panel at a time, and wash my wash mitt in between (so think of it like the two bucket system, but only I have more pressure to blast off any dirt, which I like better than the two bucket system) and keep the entire car wet in between panels to prevent hard water spots. -Water dry -Dry with the Absorber (dedicated one for the body and one for the rims). I use Ultimate Quik Detail if I'm just doing a simple wash and/or wax detail. Otherwise, proceed to the next step -Clay bar if I feel the need to. Meguiar's clay bar kit. -Wax. Applied with Meguiar's foam applicator pad using Gold Class Wax (NXT 2.0 [more of a sealant]) doesn't look nice on my paint color). Removed with a microfiber. If applying more than one coat, wait at least an hour in between coats. Do NOT wax in circles, wax in linear lines. -rinse with water to depolarize the body. -Water dry -Dry with Ultimate Quik Detail and Absorber. |
