Everyone has his own way's to clean cars, this is mine, it works for me so please if you leave a comment please leave one that's helpful. Good tips are always welcome.
After all the scratches where taken out with a polishing machine last week (see bottom of this post) I got a good base to really get a shine on the car.
The Car was clean, but in case yours isn't, clean your car with water and a car shampoo. I use this one from Autoglym.
Get the car dry, I use this microfiber towel.
Next step is to get all the dirt out of the paint. You use clay and a detailer fluid.
You take a little piece of clay and rub it over the body, after you have sprayed some detailer over it. do it section by section so you won't miss any spots.
You can use this for any tar, insects or tree spots that are not removed by the clay.
For any spots that are still left you can use very a light polish. This should do the job.Next step: Wax
I used this wax from Smart, it's 60 euros and it smells like Coconut :-)
You can use a pad to apply the wax on the car but I think it's best to do it by hand.
I used these small microfiber towels to polish all the wax into the paint.
Left done - Right Waxed
Done
For all the plastic parts I used this gel. Makes it look all new.Now the body is all done, don't forget the tires and rims.
I used Rim wax to make the rims look like new.
For the tires you can use this dressing. It puts a nice wet shine effect on the tires.
All doneHere is the result. I must say, I only knew the basics of car cleaning. But after 5 hours of hard work I didn't know that you can get such a incredible result. The paint is sooooo soft it's incredible. The Black is sooooo deep, sooo nice :-)
Last weeks polishing. Getting all the scratches out.
