Polishing And Waxing
 
I am just wondering what kind of polishes, waxes or whatever you guys use on your paint to make your car shine better than when you drove it off the lot?

I wash my car with Meguire's Gold Class.

I have one of those AsSeenOnTV wax bottles that attach to your water hose (kind of like MiracleGrow) and just spray it on. I think it's called 'Jet Wash Car Wax'. I searched in 3 town and only one store had it. It works great and leaves a carnuba shine. No need to rub or anything.

And after wards, I have 3 cotton terry towels (just soft white towels). With the first towel, I pretty much soak up and get the water off. 2nd towel, I just dry any spots/runs left from the first towel. And with the 3rd towel I sort of polish the car with.

by the way

for special jobs like when I debadged the trunk area, I used TurtleWax Polishing Compound. I use that for the spots where I do (heavier than normal) rubbing to get stuff off.

I can't stand applying wax though. I'd rather just spray it on.

How often do you guys wax your car?

XxSoVeReiGNxX 08-19-2003 07:04 AM

every other week. It depends. I'm practical and wash it only when she's dirty (excluding winter). Sometimes my car stays bearably clean for like a whole month. She has to be presentable to the public though. :)
