    New guy from Canada

    Just got a new to me bmw 325xit, in a gun metal gray with natural brown leather seats in a black interior. I'm very happy to have found a sport package, manual wagon as I have 2 little girls (3 + 1) so the wagon is the family guy and the rest of the car is for the driver... ME!!

    I'm hoping to learn a lot and purchase my stuff through the AG affiliate eshine in Canada. I'm looking for advice to make this car really stand out in terms of shine and overall good maintenance. I have a lot of experience with 303 on inflatable boats and now a new ski boat, as it's the best for the UV vinyl protection. A quick question is how to use this without being too greasy, so I'm open to tips and will post in the detailing section with specific questions. I'm north of Toronto, and can't wait until we get spring to get the PC going and clean this car up. thanks all for the information and great site.

    Welcome to the forums.

    I think your first decision will have to be how you want to maintain your car.

    Once you do that there are a lot of advice you can get from here.

    Basic maintenance are:

    Wax: Must be applied every 1 to 3 months
    Sealant: Must be applied every 3 to 6 months
    Coating: Must be applied once and is usually good for 2 years or more depending on product, exposure and maintenance

    Then you need to choose a wash method the two best options are:
    Traditional wash and rinseless wash

    To know more about all of this, search the forum. There are countless threads about all of these. If you have questions, many of us will be happy to
    help you out.

    BTW, congrats on the new car. BMWs are awesome
