I had some amazing results on my dayoff yesterday . after reading some of the extensive detailing facts i came across something I've been overlooking. When using a carnuba wax , you dont keep appling caot after coat. The paint looses its shine and gets cloudy. So I used the dish washing soap , the clay bar, and then a good single coat of wax. WOW what a difference , this baby is shinin' [:D] [:D] [:D]

I used some Q-tips to get all the excess wax and get the dirt out from the moldings . I had to hurry before my girl got home and saw 20 dirty Q-tips on the garage floor and think that I've gone nuts .[screwy]

so after 20 yrs of washing and waxing my cars its only now that I've learned multiple coats of carnuba is bad but that you can do more with polymers waxes..

If you haven't read the posted detail guides I highly recommend them..
