    Get the EGP on there first, 2 or 3 layers at least. As for wax depends on colour and Budget. P21s - £20 Chemical 50/50 - £25 Swissvax Onyx - £40

    Mac people - some pointers please!

    Could not get them to spend out on the top level machines so don't know how much of a speed jump there will be. Standard NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT card is fine for the Creative Suite and 2D stuff and will run the a Apple 30 inch and 21 inch at the same time. Unless your doing 3D or motion stuff or...

    Can you PC windscreens?

    Just incase it smears and streaks when you use the wipers. I have used a few waxes on mine, but would not recommend them to others just in case.

    detailing after a paint job

    Ask the bodyshop re wax/sealants. Fine to polish it with pure polishes that dont contain any sealant/wax regardless.

    Can you PC windscreens?

    As Alan says it won't repair deep marks and scratches. Will deep clean the glass really well with either a light cut or polishing pad. I always deep clean all the glass on a car this way with either AG Glass Polish or Einszett Glass Polish. Well worth it IMO. Follow that up with a nice wax on...

    how long before each clay?

    I do it about once or twice a year. Should be no real need to do it that often, check the paint for contaminents with your hand in a clean plastic bag. The danger of claying is it can induce small marks and scratches.

    Dusty car

    If in doubt take the safe option and wash. I would not risk and Quick Detail or Spray and Wipe products on anything other than very very light dust. Dirty rain is proper wash for me. If you have not got time to do a full wash look into Quick and Easy Wash or Optimum car wash which allow you to...

    Glazes should really always go before a wax. As long as it is a pure Glaze it can be used after a sealant and before a wax. If a glaze is used before a selant it may comprmise the sealsnt bonding and durability and before certain sealants such as Klasse SG and AG EGP is a big no no. Also there...

    I would treat the rest of the car as normal, and only use the Glaze on the painted area. Though if you have time you could use the 5 or 7 all over and then just wax the non painted areas if you liked.
