    Waxing/Sealent intervals and reapplication?

    2002 Honda Civic VTEC Detail

    Yup I told her to just buy a cover for now. But the exterior probably took me about 3.5 hours. I should have done a compound then polish but didn't have enough time for a two step correction. Love collinite 845 because it is easy to use, looks good, and seems to be lasting very long.

    Only thing was a drill used on the headlights with the wool attachment. Other than that it was done by hand and yes my arms were burnt out. But in the end it was worth the experience.

    Thank you. This is one of my first full details besides my own vehicle. It was fun but a bit challenging. Wish I had a da polisher but for now this was all by hand.

    Going to check out this welding/paint supply store here in town. The body shop I worked at used to buy 3m products there. If not I'll pick up the meguiars kit. For consumer stuff I have actually been quite happy with meguiars.

    Finally got my stuff in the mail. Used the glossworks soap yesterday and love it. Leaves a nice shine to the paint. The pinnacle bug and tar sponge works really well. Next week I'll throw on the sealent and then wax after it cures.
