..what kind of products i should use? What web sites to get on? I would like to buy in bulk if i can you know to save some money..

You're gonna get a lot of opinions on best products, and really there's no single right answer. Just do lotsa reading on this website (Autogeek is the answer to question #2) and formulate your own opinion.

Don't be in a huge rush to buy anything in bulk, and as Lauren asked: are you willing to buy a PC? You can buy that right away, as any polishing you do with ANY product you ultimately decide upon will be a whole lot more effective than by hand.

Yah God knows everyone will tell you to buy everything and it is all good so you will want it all, even if you can't use it up, and end up broke like the rest of us... then they throw a REALLY great sale...
It is an OCD cycle.....

There are many good websites to buy products from. But in all honesty, Autogeek is IMHO #1 without a doubt. They have a very very Wide range of products and the best customer service you will ever experience.

Duh, sorry..... I am the AG village blonde idiot from time to time.

At least this time I did not compliment the Mercedes owner on his hot Honda!

i suggest the kit with xmt line with the pc. Go with the intermediate.
Then you want Pinnacle signature series 2 as your wax because you have a light metallic color.

What you want to wash with depends again on what you want to spend - this gets costly fast. Sign up for the newsletter - you will get a code for 15%, I think, off your first order if you order in like a week of its receipt. I might be slightly off on my times there.

Welcome to Autogeek. It's the preparation that counts when you want that great looking mirror look :p . Dull paint won't do jack even when it's waxed :(.
