Hi all
I am new to these forums but have been lurking for a few weeks now. I've purchased a new car (i30 Nline 1.6L turbo) and have been researching on the best way to look after it's paintwork. The car is black and currently in customs, and hopefully on its way to me shortly! The car was built early September, so i thought i would wait 2 months before doing a full detail. I know this is a topic with differing views, so i'm not too sure where i sit with this to be honest. I will either wait 2 months for a full detail and spot wash/detail in the meantime.. or i will go ahead and do the full detail not long after receiving it. I'm new to the detailing world and don't want to begin a routine that is overly complex resulting in only doing it once or twice and then never again. I'm in Australia as well so not too sure if our products are exactly the same!
If i were to wait 2 months - what is best to spot clean in the meantime? I've been reading that Ultimate Detailer is not 'body shop safe'?
The full detail process i will follow (either right away or in 2 months) is:
- Nxt Generation Car wash
- Clay bar
- Ultimate polish
- Nxt Generation Paint Sealant
I was planning on Maintaining with:
- Nxt Generation Car wash
- Hybrid Ceramic Wax (the new spray one)
What do you guys think of the above system? Can you suggest some sort of safe spot cleaner if i am to wait 2 months before a full detail? I've never detailed before so it is all a little daunting to me... especially doing it on a new car
oh.. and everything will be done by hand.
Thanks in advance everyone!
