Hi my name is Anthony, I currently own a 2010 KIA Forte and want to get it nice and shinny!

Well you've certainly come to the right place! There is allot of great information here to help you do just that. Keeping your vehicle in tip-top shape is paramount to longevity.

Clay the finish to remove any embedded particles.

Even though it's new, the finish can have minor defects like swirls and micro marring. While you probably don't need a fill paint correction a nice polish like Wolfgang Swirl Remover or Menzerna PO203 will really bring out a nice gloss.

Either of these polishes can be used on a Lake Country white or green pad. Set the speed setting on your DA polisher to about 5 and work them in watching doing it's job.

Once satisfied, clean the surface with IPA or Mineral Spirits to remove any oils left from polishing.

Apply a sealer such as Wolfgang Paint Sealer or Menzerna Power Lock

Apply your favorite wax

Using a detail spray in between washes is a great idea and I like to spray on a coat of Optimum Spray Car Wax to keep the finish brilliant..
