Ok, anybody have any professional or just tried and true tips for getting the best finish on your vehicle. What kind of products do you like?

 

de- greaser shit is awesome

 

Cover paint with mud. Door dings and paint swirls dont bother me anymore

 

lol, Im hooked on mcquires waxes and polishes. My black paint is faded as shit but after doing the three stage waxing/polish it leaves the paint looking "wet". Its great shit. For the interior dash and plastics I like the 2001 stuff cause it makes my car smell like JcPennies shoes section. Like new leather or something. As far as tips, just make sure the wash mit you use to wash your car is CLEAN, otherwise your putting swirls right back into your paint. I always use the car wash shit they sell between waxes but end up going to Dawn when I plan on re-waxing to strip the old wax off. Gunk degreaser is the shit for engine bays. Pick up some good engine bay detailing stuff to put on your radiator hoses and what not to make them black again instead of dirty/rotted looking.

 

Zaino & 3m products rock my world.

 

so does pelt.

 

That is more of an interior dressing.

 

I am going to research 3m products

 

I've detailed professionally now for 14 or so years and 3M products are the best I've ever used,exspensive but the best.

 

get a claybar, clay your car, wax it or use zaino car polish afterwards

never use the same bucket and cleaning applicator for your rims and body cuz of brake dust

if u got swirls remove them w/ a buffer and 3m glaze or fill them w/ zaino swirl remover
