    that's awesome news!! the fact that I've seen decent reviews and have time to give it 2 coats makes me pretty confident. I have an odd love for this car so I really want to protect it

    It's a white car. Its not the most noticable color in the world for the hairline swirls. It could definitely benefit from a polishing but i've just been in debate if it is worth putting the time and product into it if I plan on doing a ceramic coating before winter. If I had enough time to...

    Thanks for all the input! I will keep it waxed for protection until I have a weekend for polish and ceramic coating. How long do you think my wax will last with bi-weekly maintenance cleans?

    got ya. I assume that's not needed for the caranuba wax? I'd hate to polish it twice within a couple months of eachother

    I guess that makes sense but I'm an overthinker so let me right it out. Don't polish yet becuase i'd be removing clearcoat. But go ahead and wax it because it is a protetive layer until I can ceramic coat it?

    yes I do own a polisher. I have a g9 I bought from autogeek. interesting. so just put the wax on and hold off on the polish until I can do ceramic coating? either way I want some protection before I daily the car. it's 20 years old and pa is harder on cars and there's nothing over the...

    I am in the harleysvillle area. There are plenty of options. I am debating if it is worth using wax for now then at the end of summer or early fall doing a ceramic coating. Basically wondering if there is a downside in using the carnanuba wax to bridge the gap

    Hey all. I just picked up a 2001 golf tdi. It is in pretty good shape paint wise although I did fix one small clear coat spot on the hood. Long story short I have 80% clay barred. On Wednesday I'm going to wet sand the small clear coat fix then polish the whole car. I currently have a few...

    haha fair enough. Thanks for all the input I will order the whole sha bang It's a fathers day gift between the products and the actual detail job so it's worth it. I just have other products already but I understand their line might work better together than mixing and matching

    I am thinking I like the Cquartz UK edition. The directions listed on the product page of autogeek Wash and dry vehicle. Use CarPro Iron X to decontaminate the paint. Remove any polishing oils with CarPro Eraser. Apply Cquartz UK Edition with the supplied applicator. Spread Cquartz UK Edition...

    Ceramic coating suggestions

    Hey all, Fathers day is coming up and my dad got his first new vehicle in 20 years! I was going to polish and ceramic coat it. I haven't used ceramics yet because I'm old school and have been waxing for so long but this seems like the time to turn the corner. It is a black...
