Much needed wash+wax.

Today I helped a friend out by washing/waxing his car. When he usually bring his car to a car wash when needed. I just charged for materials used.

I started around 1 and had a little help from friends. I wanted to power wash the car but when I got there I think it broke. So we started on the wheels with Super Degresser and cleaned all 4 wheels and tires.

I then washed the car with Meguiar's Gold class soap. Filled 2 bucket with Grit Gruad.
Washed it from Top to bottom.

Then clayed the whole car with Meguair's white clay with Last Touch 1:1 dilution.
While I was claying they were vacuuming and wiping windows down.

I polished a small area to show my friend that the swirls can be removed.

I used Klasse high gloss sealant with the DA, took awhile to get use to applying thin layers.

Finally I applied some wax with DA that my friend got from an auto show called Simply Z Best. Applying and removing was real easy.

Then dressed tires and packed up.


Some before pics.





Cleaning wheels.


Started washing the car.



Here are some 50/50 shots.




Anyone seen or used this before?


I then Klasse and Simply Z Best finished product.












Hope you guys enjoy!

Re: Much needed wash+wax.

Thanks!! My friend wants to get whole car polished in the spring.

I never heard of this wax so I gave it a shot. The finish looked good and we were both happy with the results.
