I detailed my car two weeks ago, this past sunday I did another clean and use the QD to clean the car again. A couple question I have is:

1. I want to get a sealant. People said Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant was good and I'm planning to get that. I wax my car 2 weeks ago. Can I redo a whole detail in two week with the sealant?

2. So I do the same thing I did last time, Wash, Clay car before rinsing and drying. Apply polish lotion, then sealant. Wait a week. Clean car again and apply the pinnacle wax.(I cant wax the car during the weekday because I work all day from 10-8PM.

3. Can I reuse Claybar? Foam Applicator? Foam Pads?

4. How long should I wait after this to do another detail again?

5. What is a good products that OTC for wheel? What step should I take for the wheel?

Thx again for all the feedback and comment.

1. Might wanna consider Four Star UPP also ... nice sealant. Cannot go wrong with Wolfgang also.

2. No need to clay again. Wash -- polish or paint cleanse -- protect

3. Yeppers ...

4. Give the sealant 24 hours to cure, then its up to you to top, leave alone, or redetail as you want. Should see 4-10 weeks with just washing.

5. Most OTC wheel products use acid or lye as a cleaning base. Upgrade to a trusted wheel cleaner like DP or P21S. Spray, agitate, stream water. Consider coating with the sealant for long term protection.

1. Hmm...k I'll look into both of those.

2. So No need to clay again? When should I clay again for my next detail?

3. Do I wash the Pads, Applicators? or do i just reuse?

4. Thx, nice to know all that. So in two week should I do the sealant then wax too or no?

5. Okay I'll look into those Wheel Products too

Once again thx. Anymore feedback are still welcome.

clay is likely best done once or twice a year at most. If doing more often use the lighter Pinnacle Ultra Clay product.

Pads and applicators should be washed after every use. I use the DP citrus pad wash and then hose off. Hang till dry, then placed in a sealed Ziplock bag till next use.

How about bug spray? Which one should I use right now I use a TW Bug spray but people say they have chemical in them and they aren't good for the car. Which one should I get. planning on another order.

I already have the exterior/interior Pinnacle Car Kit. Which include the shampoo, cleansing lotion, carunaba wax, leather and vinyl cleaner, leather condition, and the rubber and vinyl condition.

On my new order I got the DP Tire and Wheel Combo and the Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint sealant 3.0. What else do I need? Which claybar should I get. I already have the Meg clay kit. I'm using that now is that okay?

Poorboys Bug Squash can be used full strength or added to soap (around an ounce) for extra cleaning power.

P21S makes a total wash spray that might also help too , you spray prior to washing. It will remove wax however.
