o mines a random orbit.....so im safe

 

Meguires NXT Tech Wax.

Goes on and comes off very easy, and leaves the paint with an awesome finish

 

Mine is a random orbital as well

 

i use liquid polishes and waxes...first i wash real nice, then go over it with F21 polish (i think, its a green bottle)... then i go over it with some titanium stuff from black magic...

 

I have a random orbit aswell but i only use it with polishing compound. I've waxed my SS twice so far, (first time with the buffer / second time by hand) and it turned out 1000000 times better by hand.

and DAMN i can't wait for summer to kick in so i can get a washing routine down...right now i just do it whenever the sun FINALLY comes out

PS: i seriously feel your pain about the swirls

 

just saw the Turtle wax ICE thing. it says it wont leave white residue and its somekind of waxing breakthrough

http://www.turtlewax.com/

what do you guys think?

 

Never had problems with "white residue" due to waxing...and seriously...if i had a nickel for everytime i read "LATEST BREAKTHROUGH IN CAR-CARE TECHNOLOGY!!!!11" i'd be f*cking Pam Anderson

 

Porter cable polisher -- Poor Boy SSR1, SSR2, Professional Polish, and Carnuba wax.

Here's the result when I used "store bought" products w/ the polisher:



It looks even better w/ the Poor Boy stuff I also am trying out Klasse and Sonus stuff pretty soon. I love auto-detailing.

Turtle Wax ICE is awesome, I use it for "quick" wax jobs and it waxes everything w/o any residue, like the plastic or rubber trim areas, the grille(s), etc.

 

Remember... Wax on... Wax off..

I am going to start to use the Nano Wax..

 

Is THAT what they meant by white residue??? If that's true this Ice stuff will be a lifesaver I'm so damn sick of masking off trim pieces so i can wax care-free

 

omg your blue is shinier than my black! .....i gotta get one of those

 

the same for me and on the 96 Accord it totally improved what the wife thought was a shitty paint job! although it took a while to wax the accord

 

Have You Guys Heard Of The New Turtle Wax ''ice'' I Saw It On Tv And It Sounds Like Its Good

 

yea....i saw it on the internet.....and we just talked about that a little .....^^^^

cant wait to try that....maybe ill pick one up next week.....

 

YEAH ME TOO!

 

You guys have to try Wizard's Mist-N-Spray. That stuff works wonders, and it smells like cherries! I'd drink it if I could...

 

I bought the turtle wax ICE and it's awesome, of course I tested it out on the wife's Trailblazer first to be sure I wouldn't hurt my baby. No white residue and a shine like you know what. It doesn't take long to get it done but I'm not sure yet how durable this stuff is. If it comes off after 1 wash ... It does have a cleaner in it too so waterspots and bug guts come off really easy.

 

I use meguiars NXT best 17 bucks i've spent on wax. It leaves alot of residue like most wax, but if you use two towels you should be okay. Dont worry about getting it on plastic trim like the side mirrors, i just used peanut butter and it came right off... yeah thats rite peanut butter i didnt believe it till i used it.... anyone recommend a good polish solution? i've waxed the car twice already, i need a polish to keep it shining like new

 

I got it too. I used it yesterday... made my car look brand new. And nature helped test it out today, it rained and not just any rain. Vancouver rain.... let just say it still looks good. Although there are water drops in the usual spots (below trunk and a bit on front bumper and roof).

 

Sounds pretty good. I'll have to try some of that stuff.

 

Yep, Mequires is the best way to go. Also, it dries on clear, so you dont get those white marks.
