Need help with clay, wax, polish

[lisandra]

Thanks for the tips all, finally was able to successfully detail my car. Time constraint didn't allow for a wax but I'll be doing that this weekend.



So I learned not to apply JetSeal to the plastic and rubbers haha....damnit.


How the heck do I remove this shit? It's all over my plastic trim, grill, etc.

Aside from the white streaks on the plastic, my car is shining like the freaking Sun. Hot damn can't wait to wash her and hit her with some Wax.

Pink eraser will take care of that

Had my car for 6 months. On average I wash her every 2 weeks, wash method is as follows:

Rinse with pressure washer
Foam cannon
Let foam drip off car
Rinse with pressure washer
Two bucket was method
Rinse and dry
Wax as you dry spray wax and buff
Go over car again with microfiber towel


Kind of worried about my car having alot of contaminants on it already since it's been 2 quarters and I still haven't removed contaminants, waxed and polished.

Generally in what order do you clay bar, wax and polish?

After washing the car

how do you like that foam gun? I use a lot of chemical guys stuff and have thought about the gun just its expensive
