Hello Everyone,
Im new to Meguiars online and a new car owner. I have never owned such a nice car and I hope to maintain its paint as much as possible. Im still trying to learn the ropes of this site. I cant afford a full detail by pro shops and I DONT have access to a garage at all.
I have the following items:
-Meguiars Gold Class Paste wax
-Meguiars smooth surface clay kit ( w/Quick Detailer,2 clay bars, 4oz of cleaner wax, and Microfiber cloths)
-Meguiars Gold Class car wash
I was wondering if these steps would be fine:
-Wash car with Gold Class car wash and then DRY
-Use meguiars smooth surface clay kit all over the car
-then wax with the Gold class Paste wax, then wipe off?
So far I just wash with just regular soap and water since I fear screwing up the paint, its just my luck.
I have NEVER used wax, and I fear if I apply it I will miss a spot that will bake into the paint. (Car is a dark grey charcoal color if it matters)
How long should wax be left on before removing? Is it better to take off by hand and cloth or should I buy a buffer and learn to use it?
Since I dont have a garage is it better if I wax early in the morning or in the evening?
Im apologize for being such a newbie with all these questions. I would appreciate any info from anyone, Thank you all for your valuable time and insight.
Sincerely -BH
