grungera91Z it depends on the paint......60miles a day is abuse wether it's easy or hard miles. that's over 17,000 miles a year so if your paint is stock then yeah i'd wax it too.

 

I put up one For Zaino!!!!Its A lot of Work.. but you, will be amazed at the results... Great stuff

 

I JUST USED MEGUIAR'S NEW STUFF "TECH WAX".........AWESOME! I WAS REALLY HAPPY W/ THE FINISH!

 

I use Meguiar's Deep Crystal and it does an OK job.

 

Its all in the preparation...

1st thing is to use a cleaner. I use Meguires #3 (i believe, ill have to look again) medium cut cleaner with a buffing wheel. Then follow up with a good glaze... I like Meguires #7 show car glaze. Applied with a wheel it'll take out all the fine scratches. Follow up with a 2nd coat of #7 applied by hand, then a good wax. I prefer Meguires #26 or CarBrite Butterwax or CarBrite SLEEK (on dark colored cars).

Also you guys that are getting a "haze" over time... its gonna happen. The haze and microscopic scratches usually come from drying the car after a wash. You get dust on the wet car then rub it in when you're drying it. Best thing to do is get out the #7 glaze and bring it back. Don't wait too long between applications or it'll just get worse over time.

Also too much wax can be a problem also. If you're going to follow the above steps first wash your car with Dawn liquid dishwashing detergent. It'll remove any wax and grease you have on the finish.

 

I used Zaino on my new car and it came out amazing.

 

mike be sure to dilute that detergent...otherwise while your stripping your wax and other chemicals your pushing harsh abrassives into the paint.

 

I just bought it two days ago, havent got a chance to try it. will let you know

 

I use the 3 step Meguiars.

 

i use meguirs myself, always have probably always will. great products, i love the gold class and the quick wax and quick detailer.

kandied, why is it u dont use wax? and what do you use/do to get the shine you get on your car without waxing? i've wondered this since i heard you didn't wax but just now thought to ask...

 

It's not my thirdgen, but it's waxed with Gold Class...

 

Forgot the pictures...

nano wax.... any one try it... they make it sound *** like...???

 

F113 or Meguiar's

 

i just bought the eagle one nano wax i will let you guys know how it works when i get a chance.

 

Did Meguiars send you a lil brochure with all the new Tech wax products. In the Brochure it has a car with half he hood done and it says its an 84 Camaro.........

 

yup i got that flyer, its awesome.

 

Since I just had my car painted, the friend that painted it for me told me to use the Mequires #7 show car glaze since I can't wax it for like a year he said to make sure the paint is completley cured. I can definitly tell the difference when I put the glaze on. The only problem with the glaze is that it comes off with water so after it rains or if there was any dew in the morning when you car was left out you have to put it on again to bring out the shine again.

 

you really cant wax your for a year after you get new paint??

 

they told me 3 months, so i waited 3 months, i couldn't wash it with soap for 2
