    What polishes/waxes are you using?

    I agree here as well. I have been switching to products that do not leave a haze. I do like to experiment and I do not really have a go to polish or wax. There is always something new. I used Ardex for years. They leave haze, but I loved how they worked. Since I joined this group, i have people to ask my questions to.

    Thanks for your suggestion.

    Re: White Haze on Trim

    Hey.... nothing wrong AT ALL with spending 30~45 minutes doing a tape job. Heck, I've spent 2 hours on it and wouldn't EVER regret it.

    As for removing haze after the fact... try Mothers Back to Black Trim Cleaner. It comes with a big industrial toothbrush that really helps you get down to it. You need to MAKE SURE however that you tape off EVERYTHING paint related before you break out that industrial toothbrush. It'll scratch the living snot out of ANY paint it gets near. Just double tape your paint and you're good.

    While this car didn't have white haze, it did have one serious problem with the window trim. (It will remove haze, been there, done that.)

    Take a look at the results on the little Sentra, it REALLY made it look better.

    I agree.. It's funny because I sometimes find myself worrying if I'm spending too much time on things like wheels & tires [and of course wheel wells at the same time] during a full detail on a job. Factor in that it's usually the 1st thing to get started on, and time is always precious when detailing someone else's vehicle. But in order to get the job done right, it can take some time! 45-1hr on the wheels/tires/and wells alone is what it is sometimes..

    Vacuuming is another area that I can get pretty deep into.. I'm not sure what percent of us can easily spend up to 1-1.5 hrs on a complete detailed interior vacuum step, but I'm definitely 1 of those people. Lol.
