If it's getting a pro coating in the spring, I don't think i'd spend the time correcting the paint now as the installer should be correcting the paint. Just a light polish or dedicated paint cleaner/prep should be adequate, followed by the coating process.

[dr_ashk]

thank you all....

regarding the coating in the spring...
its not sure & i'm really think twice & triple in it...

regarding the day of reciving it (depending on situation if Volvo allow me to have a place for detailing or not):

if yes :
washing with trix, then carpro trix
claying with Meg clay plus lube
coating with CQUK + carpro reload
windows - clean with eraser then coating flyby forte
wheels - clean with trix & eraser, then coating with carpro reload
leather - clean then coating with carpro leather


if NO :
may be just claying then car preload!!

and 2 weeks after, i will do all steps at home ... taking my time & my bear

big thanks again for everyone
and if you have any comment, please don't hesitate...

Hello autogeekers…

I am new to your world
I just start it 2 years ago
However, unfortunately and for some personal issues I didn’t complete it

At that time, I bought many items as recommended by some friends, who were just start detailing their cars personally like me that time…

Anyway, as I just bought a new VOLVO XC 90 2016 – whitish crystal pearl metallic, & I suppose to receive on December in Sweden, the passion came back

Since 1 month, I did not stop re-reading everywhere
So, I need your help now please, to make my lists of item that I need to start again my passion

The items in black are my suggestion
The items in RED are the items I already have

I divided the list into the common steps
And I will start my practice on my actual Nissan – Black Pathfinder

As you will see, in each step or part, I put many suggestions because I am very confused and I really need your help to buy what I really need and what I will really use…

I NEED THIS LIST TO BE AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE PLEASE
WITH YOUR HELP TO DELETE AS MUCH AS WE CAN FROM THIS LIST OF NEWBIE

I really wouldn't recommend a leaf blower as a drying aid. If anything use compressed air from a safe distance
