Wax prep

(1/3) > >>

wacky:
I wondered what you do for prepping the car for a coat of wax please ?

AJP:
In the most basic terms - polishing. And before the polishing comes cleaning.

The wax protects whatever finish you achieve.

wacky:
thanks

so you wouldn't use distilled water to take off whatever is left of the current protection on the car ?

AJP:
I've no experience of that. Although I'm not that into the whole detailing thing.

I always got the impression that polish would remove any wax, as it's slightly abrasive. Hopefully someone more into it can offer some info.

@bonelorry perhaps?

Horatio:
Have a look on www.detailingworld.com it's a complete mine-field.

There's 101 products to choose from.

Halfrauds sell lots of products to achieve the look you're after.

Wax free shampoo wash, clay-bar, polish, wax
