Since it was such a nice day i decided to give the car it's final big detail before winter hits.
Usual blah
Washed with Megs gold class, sonus mitt, 2bm
Rinse
De tar with Tardis
Rinse
Clayed with Bilt hamber clay
Washed again
Dried
Polished with lime prime
2 layers of extra gloss protection
I have tried applying wax by hand before, but usually just a small panel to see, but since it was such a nice warm day though i would do the whole car. Dodo juice Diamond white was my wax, nice and workable in the heat.
As you get some out and rub it between your palms you can feel the wax melt, very nice sensation. Then just massage it into the paint, leaving behind a thing even coat. Takes a bit of practice and i think i went a bit heavy in places which was a pita to buff off. But in general i think its faster than using a foam pad by hand, but probably uses more wax.
So nice feeling the glass like paint if you have prepped it correctly. I advise you to give it a shot :broon:
Not so bad doing it on the privacy of my drive, but if you car is in the street you may get some looks if you are seem massaging your car.
