XXX help

[riz]

Q1:

when you people wash/ seal and wax your car is your paint like that of a car in a showroom. ( i use extreme washnwax/ M-seal and XXX)
Mine isnt it, if i touch it u can see my finger print, i tried using less XXX, and still get the same problem, i work my ass off to buff it out, but it always seems to have a slight layer on it??

Q2: if i washed car 3 weeks ago and m sealed it twice and i want to wash it tomw do u have to seal it again or can i just wax it?

 

[Rich]

Not sure what you mean in Q1, are you getting a haze left over after waxing?

Q2 - Just wash and quick detail, maybe throw a coat of wax on if you have time.

sorry its not a haze it looks nice from a distance but when u go close up it feels like a greased baking tray




Q2: will Chemical guys synthetic detailer do?is there anything to use in between washes that gives a little more gloss but good protection?

 

[Rich]

Did you clay and polsih the car before sealant and wax?

The Chemical guys synthetic detailer is a great option to add gloss, to add some more protection and gloss, maybe look at the CG Speed Wipe.

yeah i did, just seems to have a layer, maybe im not removing it properly, just hard to know how much is too much as its a big tub? if i run my finger along it ,, you can see where its been, really pissin me off

How thick have you put the wax on?

 

[Rich]

Hard to know if your using to much, a swipe of the tub should be enough to do a door/wing or half or quarter of the bonnet. Apply nice and thin.

Try buffing the car after the wax with a clean MF towel, and/or quick detail it.

not too thick but xxx is hard so it got into blobs on panels

when i dry the car i use synthetic detailer, if my car gets a little bit dusty, can you just wet the car and detail it?wont particles of grime scratch it?

 

[FiDoDiDo]

Anything more than dust should be a wash is how I do it.

No subsitute for a proper wash IMO. Ok on light dust.

Can be used while drying.

Use your fingers to warm the wax slightly.
