    The Wife-mobile - yes, more Turtle Wax

    Finally gave in to all the wife's "hinting" to clean her car. I figure I've been harping on Hybrid Solutions, so I thought that I had better use it on her car too.


    I won't post about the wheels and tires since I already did in the "Torture Test" thread, so onto the body work.


    Wash - Meg's Hyper Wash - I should be using the HS Slick & Slide since this is a 'Turtle post,' but I Have a ton of HW left and I don't want to waste it.


    Polish - HS Polish & Wax, by machine, with a Meguiar's maroon cutting pad, speed 6 on the PC.


    Wax - HS Pro To the Max Wax X2, by hand using a foam applicator (works MUCH better than a MF applicator) 12 hours apart, I have to work today, so I didn't have 24 hours to wait.


    Rims - HS Ceramic Spray Coating. I've pretty much switched to the Hybrid Solutions Pro line for the paintwork, so since I have the Ceramic Spray Coating, I might as well use it on something.


    The Results:

    I know that ford color well, I guarantee the picture doesn’t come close to doing it justice, but it looks super nice.

    Awesome job there Don. Ford's ruby red is a very nice color!

    Have you considered picking up some of the "One and Done" compound from the hybrid solutions lineup? It is very nice to work with, highly recommend it if you ever need something more aggressive than the polish and wax.

    Yes I have. My wife's car could probably benefit from it as the previous owner used tunnel washes for 56,000 miles before I got to it, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
