Indeed - Both are needed. Polish to create gloss and fix any defects, wax or sealant to look in the shine, protect while adding that little extra to the looks.

Sure will, clean black cars are the dogs lol

Unfortunately not - the polish is the stage that does that, wax seals and protects while adding a little to the overall apperance.

You should be able to get better results by machine, and it will save your arms from feeling like they are going top fall off !

It is the best mod you can make to Black ! Only reason I got mine was down to buying a Black 182 .

Tree sap that is actually stuck to the paint will come off with claying stains left buy it will be removable with a decent polish. All claying will do is remove bonded on grime washing alone won't anything that is bonded to the paint will be removed by it. Shine and gloss - i.e looking new and...

Plastic Headlights polish up just like paint - Menzerna Final Finsih or Intensive Polish on what ever pad grade is needed works a trat - they can also be wet sanded if need be to correct deeper marks.

Use it regularly when out and about at some awards do tonight no phone signal in the basement of the motorcycle museum at least I had free wi-fi though!

I really don't know what to do - some bargain 40D's out there new now - or just save longer and get the 50D.

Has always made cars look worse for me !

Fairy liquid and warm water in a bucket, rinse well and air dry.

You only need enough pressure to keep it in contact with the paint. After doing paintwork, I use the clay to do the glass and then wheels before relegating it to the bin.

I would not say clay amkes a car look brand new - it will leave perfectly smooth paint. Main tips for claying is make sure the clay is warm and soft, otherwise it will induce lots of marring. Don't use too much pressure and and ensure the surface is well lubricated with quick detail spray or...

APC tends to need some agitation and work, Autoglym Engine and Machine just makes the grime fall off !

Autoglym Engine and Machine Cleaner or Meguiars Super Degreaser - APC does not cut it for me on most engine bays.

The whole Menzerna does not like the cold is one of those things a few on Detailing World have made out to be worse than it is, and only really seems to effect those using a rotary. It has long work times by D.A and maybe a touch longer in the cold - it is hard to but a time on it as it depends...

Jesus Butter gets through engines quicker than you do brakes ...

Just have to make sure it is not that cold - as the clay can be hard to keep warm and soft other wise.

To do any proper correction on anything less than very very minor marring I would expect you to end up using the 83 on a cutting pad if using a D.A type machine.

May need something a bit more pokey for engine bay cleaning that APC if it is really grimey - Autoglym Engine and Machine Cleaner would be my chosen weapon.

Ask the bodyshop/painter - if it has been baked properly you may be fine to seal/wax it. Some places will say to leave it to cure for 14, 30 or even 60 days in some cases. Polishing is fine as it will have probably been polished already after painting.

AG Bumper Care just covers the marks not removes them.

PM Brazo.

You could also look into adding a Glaze such as Meguiars Show Car Glaze #7 after the polish before the wax. Will make more of a difference looks wise than any wax or sealant again - needs to be remembered that the LSP really only does add the final few % of looks. On hand finished jobs the...

Menzerna Final Finish used properly should give an almost perfect gloss. Make sure you refine it properly with a a decent amount of work time to break it down fully using a finishing pad. Any wax or sealant will add very little in overall looks and gloss over a well machined finish. Sealants...

Surely the cheapy blue must have been free again like it was on the 182 !

Dodo Juice Waxs and pre wax cleaners will not make that much of an in road into making you car look any better than it does using Meguiars Products. In what way do you want to make the car look better ? - improve its looks, gloss, depth shine, defect correction ? If any of the above - a good...

Looking good - better weather than here it has been raining since Saturday lol

I am not 100% sure how rain x works, it seems to have some cleaning abilitys in the fact it makes the glass squeaky clean as you apply it, not one I would try on my paintwork thats for sure.

lol ! I am only on my second bottle of Jeffs and have been using it for a while now - it does go a long way.
