+1 but skip the IPA step assuming you will wax vs seal. the car is in good shape but could use a good polishing to improve clarity. BL & V7 should do the trick. Your going to need polishing a wax pads typically white and black to red.

Why skip, I thought IPA was good to remove oil residue?

What would happen if he did skip the IPA and there was still oil residue and he applied the wax/sealant?

Wow skip ipa? I even use menzerna top inspection after claying to ensure the utmost bonding to my paints clear coat. Call it overkill but wax and sealant adhesion is important to me.

If waxing after polishing you do not need to do the IPA wipe. Yes if doing a sealant then removeing the oils is manditory.

I've used all sorts of waxes after polishing without doing an IPA wipe. You need to be careful doing an IPA wipe with just diluted alcohol because it's easy to induce scratches then you'll be working backwards. This is why I said skip it if just planning to wax. BL & V07 work well together.

Why can't a Glaze be used?

Steps: IMO

Correct the paint
Sealant
Wax
Glaze
Followed by a Nice wash and Quick Detail spray (Poor Boys Spray glaze truly brings out the pop)

You should glaze and then wax

Been thinking about that as I glazed the red Prius.

If your paint is already corrected why not add another layer of protection!?

Which in this case would be Glaze

I have a Nova coming up, Tune In...
