Need help buying car care kit for my black truck

[JBaker]

Hey everyone.

Im new here, but not new to the detailing world. I have a 2012 Tuxedo Black F150 that needs some TLC. It has water spots on all horizontal surface, as we'll as on the windows. I haven't waxed it in at least a year, so I am in need.

For christmas this year I got a PC 7424XP, so its been sitting in a bag ever since, and its about that time to bust it out.

I need help figuring out what all I should get. All i have is some compound I bought from auto zone from when I tinted my 3rd brake light. Other than that. I need it all, Clay, wax,polish etc. I could also probably use something for the black wheels as well...

any recommendations would be helpful, there are just way too many options.

Thanks in advance!

Do you have a backing plate and pads yet or just the machine? Are you thinking about going with wax, sealant or coating?

I got the PC 7424XP XL kit... so

2 CCS 6.5 inch Yellow Cutting Foam Pads
2 CCS 6.5 inch Orange Light Cutting Foam Pads
2 CCS 6.5 inch White Flat Polishing Foam Pads
1 CCS 6.5 inch Gray Finishing Foam Pad
1 CCS 6.5 inch Blue Finessing Foam Pad
2 Microfiber Bonnets 6”
1 Lambswool Leveling Pad

I am not sure about the wax, sealant, coating.... Wax doesn't last as long. sealant will last longer.. so maybe that route. or both?

I was looking at the BLACKFIRE BlackICE Whiplash Wax Kit.... but idk. its a lot of money. If I could do the same thing or better for cheaper with different products thats always a better choice.

I just want to take advantage of this 25% off ;)

I have a black GMC 2500 Sierra and bought the Wolfgang Ultimate shine kit. Pricey but haven't regretted it .
