Adams baby!! I just had waterless wash and detail spray. Haven't been able to wax it, had some painting done. I'm on count down for some pc work.

jeez I may have to completely mist my car with detail spray next time I wash it... wow

ADAM'S all the way! Looks like glass when done right. Americana, Buttery wax, or super machine wax (black with black pad on porta cable). Can't go wrong.

But like Moose said it;s hard to beat megs or mothers for OTC products.

The problem with Zymol that you buy at Auto zone is that it is not the "real" Zymol. The Zymol that I see in most stores, in a plastic bottle, is made by Turtle Wax and is a cleaner wax. You can buy "real" Zymol from their web site. Get the HD clense to clean your paint and Carbon wax to protect it. Not cheap though. Figure on about $25 for the HD cleanse and I think $55 for the wax. I have used Zymol products for years on Ferraris and Lamborghinis with great results.

We did a wash, then Mother's clay, then a wax stripping wash with Chemical Guys Citrus wash (didn't feel right using Dawn). We followed that with a Chemical Guys EXTREME SHINE EZ~CREME GLAZE w/ACRYLIC SHINE II, and then directly followed Blackfire White Diamond sealant. Both of these were hand applied...easy on and off. Car looks better than when I bought it new...simply amazing!

This is my choice followed by cg natura wax,

You just have to pick what fits your need and budget. They have specials all of the time. Always a good time to get stuff. I started with a pc kit because I really needed paint correction.
But you could just start with a grit guard, wash supplies, etc.

Turtle wax express shine. IT COMES IN A GREEN SPRAY BOTTLE . I have used this for many years on all my black cars ,trucks ,motorcycles. For 5 bucks. It beats them all !!! You can use it on glass, plastic, the whole car....
