| | | I chose washing .... why ?? Because I have never seen a car that didnt deserve and need at least a wash. All cars look better after a wash, considering you use the correct products (a true car wash) and nice mit (preferably sheepskin) and you dry the car properly (waffle weave, and leave blower). And without a wash .... well we could not move onto different steps and truly access the paint/finish. |

| | | Waxing. I love wiping off the final coat, taking a step back, and seeing the result of all the work. |

| | | Well, I really enjoy all phases of detailing, as they compliment each other. However, I really enjoy polishing the paint to perfection. I also believe it provides the most significant improvement in the appearance of the vehicle.
I also really enjoy "final detailing"... applying a great gloss enhancing QD after all the other work is very satisfying.

| | | Sealant here, especially since spray sealants like WG Sealant Spritz and UPPS were invented. After giving my cars their weekend baths, I just spray and wipe for that ultra durable, deep gloss finish, awww...
Thorough cleaning of the windows is very gratifying as well. Nothing beats cruising around with crystal clear windows. |

| | | Like Miami Sunset I like the PC. In fact it is to blame for my continued obcession with Detailing. It helps take care of all the scratches and marring that I create doing my favorite thing. Quick Detailing a well prepped and protected paint every day. Some days I do it more than once.
