    can clear coat be wiped on?!?!(opticoat can)

    Nope, trying to wipe on clear will give you terrible results like was said. Base and clear are sprayed to prevent a harsh, uneven finish. Even if it didnt cause issues chemical wise, the finish would be terrible. A good example of this, is the visible brush strokes when using a brush with latex...

    To clay or not to clay and M105/205 Question

    If you passed the baggy test, Id say move on to polishing after a good wash to strip the old products off. As for minor swirls, Id go for the 205/White first. The 105 is a much heavier cut, and doesnt sound like its neccesary in your case. Also, as far as the trouble spots, Id start with 205...

    Fresh Paint

    Coming from a body shop, i can tell you paint gets sanded/polished the day it comes out of the booth, or maybe the day after if thats when it fits in the line. Thats for water based paints as well.

    2000 Subaru Outback

    I just dont understand how people can let their cars go so long like that. Its just nasty!! I worked in a body shop, and even though the customers were told to remove everything from their vehicles, they hardly ever did.. How many of you pros have found roaches in cars? lol

    How NOT to detail a car especially a bentley

    :iagree: Just because someone has been "doing" it for 20+ years, doesnt mean they've been doing it right! My wife isnt even into detailing like I am (she has me for it) but SHE wants to smack the guy in the mouth!

    Mixing Two Types of wax

    Yup, like was said, it can be done. Plenty of people do it. Some people like having the best of both worlds, like using a sealant for protection, and topping it with a Carnauba wax for depth.

    Baking Soda to wash?

    Baking soda is nothing.. I had a guy tell me I didnt know what I was talking about when I told him washing his car in dishwasher detergent was a bad idea.. He insisted it was fine, because his paint was still nice and "shiney". And I dont mean Dawn.. I mean Cascade!!
