    Detailing piece by piece?

    Thanks for y'all's input! I really do appreciate it. Money is not the main problem, but the electric outlet is. I don't want to buy a DA polisher without having a place to plug it in. I have to scout the area more and see if long extension cable might be an option. As I'm typing these, I...

    Detailing piece by piece?

    so let me get this... Based on what you guys said, I have this progression: Day 1: wash, clay, seal/wax Day 2: quick wash, compound/polish one panel, re-seal/wax that one panel Day 3: quick wash, compound/polish another panel, re-seal/wax that one panel. Repeat on each panel until the whole car...

    Detailing piece by piece?

    Hello AGO community, I recently joined this forum because I recently purchased my first "new" (certified used) car. I want to keep the car condition as nice as possible internally (engine) and externally (paint, trims, etc.) I live in an apartment that has a space to wash cars where I can...

    Fine scratch on mirror

    Is there on "fix" to this besides replacement? I would hate to decide on which one bother me the most: spending money on barely noticeable defect (only noticeable by me or another driver) or having to look at these scratches every time I drive.

    Fine scratch on mirror

    I noticed these fine scratches going horizontal on my side view mirror (passenger side) with about 2 inches from each other. Since my car was recently washed and clayed, I think these scratches were incurred during one of the process. The scratches were not deep. I cannot get my fingernail to...

    My nemesis: Swirls

    Thank you for everybody's 2 cents. I brought my car to be assessed by another detailer. This one scares me too. He said it doesn't matter which one goes first (sealant or wax) - not from what I read all around detailing forums. I pretty much lost trust from that point. The only auto detailing...

    My nemesis: Swirls

    So does waxing hide fine swirls? I wonder if the swirls were already there and they just become visible because they clay the wax off the paint.

    My nemesis: Swirls

    it's a new (certified) car. Paint was excellent until I got the overspray stuff that looks like white sand grits all over the car. What is marring? How does it look like?

    They hire a third party, a car cleaning business. Forgot the name though.

    My nemesis: Swirls

    My car had over-spray materials from a nearby construction on college campus. The contractor finally took care of it today by washing and claying the whole car. Now that I look at it more closely, I notice swirl marks all over the car. Some of them are not bad but I definitely see some that...

    What is this?

    It's located on the driver side underneath the side-view mirror. I bought the car as pre-owned certified so I never had the privilege to unwrap it. No, I didn't notice any transfer of color. I used a foam pad to apply the compound and polish and wipe it off with a MF towel and didn't notice...

    What is this?

    Ooops.. Apparently the pic was not loaded from the mobile app. Here it is. You can see it distracts the reflections on the paint. I tried Meguiar's ultimate compound and polish by hand but didn't seem to do anything to it.
