Just purchased our first new car, I would like to get some supplies to take care of the paint. I've been trying to read up, but a lot of this is confusing, hoping you guys could answer a couple questions for me.
I have always like meguires products, this is what i have acquired so far-
6 supreme shine towels
2 microfiber wash mits
bottle of GC wash and conditioner
smooth surface clay kit
bottle of ultimate quik wax
i was planning to buy these today-
water magnet drying towel
ultimate paste wax
quik interior detail cleaner
NXT generation glass cleaner
Does that look like a good list of products to get me started? Anything you would suggest that I missed? The car is brand new, but the paint is not smooth like glass, so i had planned to give it a good wash and dry, then doing a clay bar over the entire vehicle. Then I planned to use the ultimate paste wax (by hand). I've been watching videos online, and i see that normally you woudl use a polish after the clay and before the wax, but is that really necessary on a brand new car?
Also, after i do the clay bar with the quik detailer, do i need to wash again before the wax?
There are a couple pieces of chrome on the new vehicle, on the front grille, along the bottom, and a little on the back. When i do the wax, do i also do the chrome, or do i need to keep it off of the chrome? i have added a pic of the car and the color just so you could see the chrome and car color.
Thanks for any help
