Thumbs up Meguiar's Deep Crystal 3-Step System

Detailed the exterior of my car today, and all I got to say about the finishing results is wow!!! My car is super slick and bugs just slides thru it like jello. Haha... Good Stuff! Worth the try... I washed and clayed it as well. Feels and looks better than new!

Car looks great, R1!

It's being able to sit back and enjoy the view that makes the process of detailing so rewarding.

Also have a SVT Cobra thats red that would be in need for some carnauba to bring out the shine. If i were to do it by hand, what paint cleaner, polishes, carnaubas do you recommend. And with a PC, what paint cleaner, polishes, carnaubas would you guys recommend.

Here are some pics... Goal For the Cobra is to have a more Wetness Look to it. Also reducing the minor swirl marks u can see if your really really close at it. And also bring out more of a Vivid Red to it...

For the cobra, to make it shine, i would recomened you

Wash
Clay-i really like the poli-clay, plus you can buy it by the pound
paint cleanse- my fav right now is Victoria wax, (it adds depth to the paint) but i have mnay more comming so ill have to update you
Wax- this is really personal. If you are lookinf for an easy to use wax with ok results i would use nattys blue, if you want a really wet slick wax go with sovergin.
to find info on the wax for you, i would do a search for wax reviews.

With the swirl removing, this is a BIG topic, it all depends on what you have for equipment and experience. I dont have time right now but i will post on swirl removing in the future
