Looks like it’s got carnuba. I guess I should find a quick detail spray?

I just got my car back from a new paint job. I was told paint takes 60-90 days to fully cure and I should not dry wipe the car or apply wax. For things like pollen, is waterless wash safe vs having the pull out soap and water to rinse off the car? I have pinnacle waterless wash at home. My...

So even thought the Pinnacle Shampoo says use 1/2 ounce per bucket (I'm guessing that's 4-5 gallons of water), I should use 3-5 ounces?

Correct. I meant foam gun, not cannon. Mine attaches to a normal garden hose. So based on the reply above, I mix water and soap into the resovoir?

I just ordered the half gallon Foam Cannon and I'm a bit confused by the instructions on use of the soap. It says to pour the cleaning concentrate (shampoo) into the reservoir. What I don't understand is how much and do I mix water in as well? For example, I'm using Pinnacle Body Work Shampoo...

Less than one ounce for an entire mid size car? Crap. I definitely was not being efficient. I'll shake the crap out of it a little more.

I opened my first bottle of this stuff and I was expecting a lotion like consistency. Instead, it looks almost like oil and water. Ive shaken the hell out of it but it doesn't come out with a lotion like feel. It comes out more like water with yellow stuff that's separated from the liquid. Is...

I stupidly grabbed my bottle of Pinnacle Clear Coat Safe Wheel cleaner instead of my Pinnacle Clay lubricant when I started to clay bar my car today. I "only" did one section before realizing it (damn bottles look the same). I never clay barred until today so I didn't know what the lube was...

According to the directions on the Dr. Colorchip page on Autogeek, it says wax after 1 week but avoid machine polishing for 30 days. I haven't bought any power tools, so I'd be doing the sealant by hand. Waxing would probably be a spray wax since the sealant will do the brunt of the work.

Also, Since it looks like I need to wait a week before applying the sealant, should I bypass the Clay bar and wait for that as well? In other words: Day 1: Wash & Dry, Dr. Colorchip Day 7: Wash & Dry, Clay, Seal, Wax I guess I'm concerned that if I clay before doing the Dr. Colorchip, I'm...

Thanks for the reply. This SITE is awesome. I was referred here by a coworker. I love all the videos and how-to's. My wallet however does not like this place ;-)

I am about to order a bunch of stuff for my first serious detail and I wanted to make sure I am doing things in the right order. I've watched some of the videos and I just got access to the forum, but want to place an order ASAP so forgive me if some of this info is spread out around this forum...
