  2. Waxing/Polishing/Buffing?

    in Interior / Exterior / Paint - Detailing, washing, waxing,tricks of the trade!

    Posted

    What's up guys I had a question for the car gurus, Im going to be detailing my girlfriends car soon and I was wondering what the difference is between the things in the title? I clay bared my car and them used mothers cleaner wax and called it a wrap and it came out wet looking :-) but her car has probably never been cleaned before lmao there's a lot of swirl marks and its pretty rough so I'm for sure going to use the mothers clay bar but what should I use/do after that? Should I use a polish or sealant wax or just the cleaner wax again? Im really not sure, her paint is blue if that matters. I'm doing it by hand I dont have a orbital buffer thing :-/ thanks guys !

    from about 3 people that went from back to foward said they lows werent as good.. idk maybe because of nothing to load off of? but idk it was louder though just make sure to seal it off completly. and dont use foam if you ever plan to sell the car. it kills the value since taht shits hard as hell to get off.. youd be better off making good trim panels. if you dont care about the car sure foam thatbish! :drinks:

    hc1400 on the left, hc800 in the middle ftw, still stock front battery. its beefy for stock. 100ah ! but i think its time for a new one. car has like 104k on it and its still the factory batt and i get a warning on coldstarts saying check alt/battery and i checked im only getting 13.1v at idle.. im guessing the battery. volts dont go much higher at 2k rpm. ill check the resting volt of the battery tommorow. hope i dont have to get a new front battery too :( already broke as it is!!
