detailing a white car

[vyn300d]

hi. would like to inquire about detailing a white car. i have researched a bit and would like to know your inputs.
1. washing (what's the best shampoo to use that doesn't strip down wax?)
2. claying (already bought mother's claybar set)
3. polishing? (i have meguiar's cleaner wax paste, is this good?)
4. wax (meguiar's white wax?)
5. wax again (meguiar's ultimate wax paste?)
6. final touch ( meguiar's ultimate quik wax or ultimate quik detailer?)

1) Just buy a car shampoo from a reputable brand. Turtle Wax Zip Wax if you're looking for value. Meguiars Gold Class Car Shampoo or Ultimate Wash and Wax kung gusto mo mag lustay ng pera. I can't recommend local brands (e.g. Blade) kasi unproven kung car wax safe.

2) Good choice. I just buy the cheap stuff from China, works just the same.

3) Get a real polishing compound or glaze. Mothers or Meguiars are always safe choices.

4) Get a paint sealant like Meguiars Paint Protect instead. Lasts longer. Or you can get Collinite 845.

5) Any good quality carnauba wax. Again, Meguiars or Mothers are safe bets. But if you use a proper product for #4, you may not need this step.

6) Use UQD to clean your car between washes. Use UQW after washing to boost your existing LSP.

Sir currently I'm using Microtex for the Shampoo (not wash and wax), Soft99 for the Clay Bar then just have a mix of the said Shampoo and Water for lube of the Clay..Then Microtex NanoFil for the hairline/swirl scratches,then NanoSil as sealant, then NanoGloss for the wax...Lastly, Microtex NanoSliq for top up...

I just re-apply Fil/Sil/Gloss once in 2months or depending on the water bead formation when I wash my car...

You can watch also Sir on youtube ChrisFix, he has an episode on how to super clean your car.

Thank you and Goodluck!

thanks for the input guys, appreciate it. btw, is it really recommended to use a DA polisher or just by hand?

DA polisher will get the job done faster and better. But you need to buy one. Decide if it is worth the cost.

Spent 2 hours claying a white car this morning. I used modeling clay bought from the bookstore. Works just fine. Silky smooth....
