Waxed My Car Today

[ABV]

Well, I went through the Meguiars 3 step process. Paint cleaner, polish, and wax. Damn that bitch shines. I got rid of all of the swirl marks on the hood, which were really starting to bother me. It only took me about 6 hours to do the whole car, but it was well worth it.

My car owns me.

Pics tomorrow.

What did the entire kit cost you? Was it worth it?

I really need to give my car a good waxing so I am excited to see those pics.

If you use the deep crystal its like like 5.50 for each step at checkers, I use the deep cystal paint cleaner and polish but then go with the mequiars gold class paste wax, which is ~$10

Yea I use that 3 step too. Onlt thing I dont like is the wax doesnt last very long. You get what you pay for... I had some really expensive wax and it lasted half a year. Megiurs lasts maybe like 2 months.

Lets group buy up some zainos or something, I want to try that shit.

Meguiar's NXT is cheaper than Zaino, just as good and easier to apply.

coo, I'll have to try it

All told, with 3 bottles of wax, cotton towels, orbital buffer with extra pads, it was about $65. But of course now I have enough to wax my other car, and probably about 4-5 others before I need to buy more. And the $30 I spent on the buffer was money well spent, it makes it much easier, and does alot better job than I could do by hand.

meguiars NXT has a light detergent in it that will remove prior applications of NXT if you try to layer it. the right way to go about it would be a layer of NXT, then use zaino on top of it, as zaino can be layered for superior shine/protection/duration. if you're going to spend that much time, might as well have a nice layer of wax that will last a little longer, and NXT does give an amazing base

I think you mean "you're" as in "you're starting to scare me with this gay fetish thing that you have."

A correct useage of "your" would be "Your indiglo gauges will not work without a motor in the car."

Simple mistake. :thumbsup:

Your talking about the car still right? :stick:

[Raptor]

Hahaha, sold the indiglo gauges, they weighed too much. YOU'RE correct in your usage of the conjugation "you - are".
