hey yall, im a min. weekly washer. hell my girlfriend thinks im nuts. washing my car relaxes me. i actually look forward to washing!!! maybe i am nuts.
i wanted some feed back on my current line up. i use meguiars gold class car shampoo w/ conditioner. i like this product and its pretty cheap. i also use their leather conditioner and wheel shine. my 1 step spray on wax while you dry is from turtle wax. i was a little leary cuz their wax sucks but it actually works very nicley and has a good shine. iwould like a suggestion on weekly spray on products. theres so many!!!

most importantly is my wax. i spent a bit on mothers cali gold carnauba wax. is this a good wax and how often should i wax?

all my scrbbing tools are microfiber, as well as my buffing towels. my drying shamme is sythetic.

any improvments i should use?
thanks alot
jeff

 

mothers is good stuff ... i use gold class wax ... but waxing should be done once a month depending on waht kind of conditions it is being driving in and such .... but i use once a month as a rule of thumb as to when to do it .

 

used mothers for a long time does wonderfull. i always do the slid test when im done have your hood close through your polish cloth at the base of the window and see if it slids off the hood at the grill then you know your set. hee hee hee hee

 

yea i like that idea. i also got a claybar lats week. but i dont think my car needs it. did the baggie test and the paint is smooth. ill hold onto it till i need it.

 

most carnuba's are considered a 2-4 week application.

I am now running my audi on 2 months and 3 waxes.

Sealants are generally conssiddered 2-3 months for 2 layers. This all depends on driving habits and maintenece routies and processes.

 

One thing the original poster did not mention is polishing. This can REALLY make a big difference.

You may want to check out a post I made to another forum. I pointed them to some good reading that talks about how to detail your car. Good background for you on how to expand your obsession! Here's the link: Click Here.
