I have used MoonWax® for years... Once it is applied I never have to do anything else. Ever. :freak: :mrgreen: :lol:

i have both paste/liquid, just whichever method you prefer using. I like using foam pad to rub it on and then terry towel to wipe it off.

I use the crap that comes with soap and is applied when you wash your car. Water beads after and the cars clean. I gave up on that bullsh*t waxing for 2hrs scene years ago.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

I use the Meguiar's spray on while you wipe dry stuff. Works well.

First use this to get the paint clean. Works best on white and red cars or darker cars with swirl marks. Also, save yourself alot of elbow grease and apply with a oribital buffer if you can not cleaned the paint with a ruby polish or clay bar in a while.

Then follow with a good wax. I prefer this b/c I've used it for 15 years with really great results *on clean paint.

Clay bars are really nice at making the paint shine like new, but it can take a lot of rubbing if the paint it old. However, worth it for that showroom shine. Used once a year it is alot less work the second time.

These three and a good afternoon and you are going to love your car. Afterward just keep her clean once a week and use the carnooba wax once a month. The cleaner wax only 3 or 4 times per year depending on where you live and whether you winter drive the car.

Meguiars Tech Wax 2.0 works best. ive used plenty of waxs. and this one is the best do far. and using the quick detailer after i wash it again a couple days later works well too. plus it smells like candy :)
