!!! Products to Protect Car ?? help...
 
yeah, winter is coming, so what should i do to prepare?

should i wash car, then wax? should i wash car then add nu-finish? is nu-finish wax? how would one apply nu-finish? i'm so confused[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]

i just want to PROTECT my car. does wax protect as well? i don't want to buff or anything, so is that eagle one stuff spray on stuff ok?

what's that glaze stuff. is that wax? or do you apply that after wax? do you even need the wax for the glaze?

i need some help

Wash, and Nu finish....You dont need anything else after the Nu Finish. Put two or three coats of nu finish on though.

thanks civic dude![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

is nufinish only for winter times? how about during summer and stuff?

civicdude 11-01-2002 01:25 PM

you can use it all year round. It is just a polish that lasts a long time

I dont know about that nufinish stuff but just put a coat of wax over it and you should be good (meguiard preferably)

scott, when you say apply 2 coats of wax on, what do you mean?
after applying the first coat to wipe it off, and apply a second right after it the same day
or should you wait?
and also is meguiers gold wax good enough to last for the winter?
i know to you this sounds like a stupid question, since your a know it all...

civicdude 11-01-2002 10:34 PM

Tarik....When I say put two coats or more I mean apply the wax, let it dry to a haze and wipe it off...then do it agian...that day...right after you remove the first coat of wax. You can apply it to the whole car and then remove it. I wouldnt use Meguires as your winter wax because it doesnt last that long. If you are able to wax your car in the winter then go ahead and use the meguires, but if you are like me and can only wax the car now I would go with the nu finish.

scott, you seem like the type that will still be out waxing his car even in the middle of the winter,
so you dont keep your detailing business runing during winter...

how long does it take for the wax to dry, after applying it to the whole car,
when done is that enough time for it to have dried, so i can wipe it right off or should i wait?

by the way around how long does meguiers gold wax last?
