How are you drying the car now? If you use rinseless wash with de-ionzed water there will not be any water spots. If you wash the microfiber a few times most of the loose bits will come off and you won't have that problem as much. I like chemical guys hybrid V7 on my black car.

no, though i am getting some soon to test, but you wipe it off with a MF towel, so it doesn't sit on the the paint. How To Use A Rinseless Wash, no rinse car wash, Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine, Detailer's Pro Series Rinseless Wash & Gloss, ONR

It is a daily driver, you are not going to be able to keep it perfect. You might want to see if your detailing friend can do a coating like opticoat. Do you have a garage? Keep the door closed and use a no rinse car wash.

Why does he charge more for machine buffing than hand?

Meguiars ulimate liquid wax (2 months old) Chemical guys hybrid V7(3 days old) so the hybrid V7 is what is doing most of the work.

Day 1 detailers are not that bad

How much does he charge to create business for other detailers?

Their instructions on their other washes say 1 oz/16oz so that should be the right amount. 0.5/128 is a big difference from 4/128

I really like using the negative shots to see the scratches, gotta try that one out.

I hope he isn't going to start by hand, machine for polish really is the only good way.

The people around you will think you're crazy until they start seeing all of the imperfections as well.

If he is polishing it probably doesnt matter as the polish will fix any marring from the clay.

The chips seem small enough that you won't need manufacturer touch up paint, so the previously mentioned options should work. In addition to a clear bra you might want to add a coating for added protection, opti-coat, gtechic EXO or cquartz.

Don't clay with just water, good way to cause marring. The ONR option is probably best bang for the buck.

I don't have a problem with the one I have connected to a hose, a foam cannon is better, but the normal foam gun is still better than nothing. 1. Yes it is faster, maybe half the time. 2. I use chemicalguys glossworkz and zymol wash and both foam well. 3. depends on which one you get. 4.Yes...

Get 2, the cost of a grit guard is a lot less than the effort fixing the extra problems that could occur from not using one.

You probably should polish, to fix the swirls the dealer probably put in it, but inspect the paint under direct sunlight and see if there are any. If you haven't picked up the car yet, ask them not to wash it before giving it to you, they tend to cause more problems than they fix with the paint...
