Welcome. Might want to put some sealant on your rims to help keep them clean!

Questions about steps for detailing a new car (newbie)
mhsmith0109 replied to mhsmith0109's topic in Detailing Write-Ups
Just got my order today. Looks like I have a helper. I think I will try adding some APC since the pilot has some black plastic trim at the bottom. I also purchased 2 MB today so hopefully will get some good stuff to add to what I ordered. Thanks for advice. I was surprised that anyone responded. -

Thanks for that advice. Question again. Would you dawn or use some of the all purpose cleaner along with the soap to strip the car? -

Thanks for all the comments. Cannot wait. -
I should be getting my first order of Adam's products on Friday. Looking at the weather in MS, I think I will get an chance to wash/detail my wife new Honda pilot. Below is a list of the products I bought. Adam's Daily Driver Detailing Kit Contents: 1 x Adam's 20" Fender Brush 1 x Adam's All Purpose Cleaner 16oz 1 x Adam's Detail Spray 16oz 2 x Adam's 10" Car Wash Pad 1 x Adam's Short Wheel Brush 1 x Adam's Car Wash Shampoo 16oz 1 x Adam's H2O Guard & Gloss 16oz 1 x Adam's Visco Clay Bar Kit 1 x Adam's Gamma Seal & Grit Guard Car Wash Bucket 2 x Adam's Borderless Gray Towel Adam's Super VRT Tire & Trim Dressing 16oz Adam's VRT Super Block Tire Dressing Applicator Adam's Liquid Paint Sealant Kit Contents 1 x Adam's Blue Microfiber Applicator Pads (2 Pack) 1 x Adam's Liquid Paint Sealant 8oz 1 x Adam's Double Soft Microfiber Towel 1 Pack Here are the steps I was gong to follow: 1. Clean rims, tires, and wheel wells 2. Wash vehicle 3. Dry the vehicle 4. Pull vehicle in the garage 5. Clay the exterior 6. Dress the exterior trim 7. Apply LPS to exterior (headlights and rims) My questions are: 1. Does the car need to be dried before claying? 2. Do I need to re-wash and dry the vehicle after claying or can it just be wiped up with a microfiber towel? 3. Since I do not have anything for my windows yet, can/should I use LPS or use the H2O GG on them after step 7? Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully will post pics after I am finished. Thanks

Great info. Will have to get some my new car.

Thanks guys. I have been looking at a lot of topics and videos on here. Kind of excited and nervous that I don't want to mess anything up.

Just ordered the daily driver detail kit (plus vrt and paint sealant) to start caring for our new honda pilot. Trying to learn the ropes.

Best Applicator for Liquid Paint Sealant
mhsmith0109 replied to avimore's question in Exterior Protection & Enhancement
Do you have to use the red hex applicator or can you use the blue or yellow one? I did buy the microfiber pad but think a hex applicator might be easier. -
Does a Hand Application Still Work Good?
mhsmith0109 replied to BobMcC81's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
What applicator do you use to apply the liquid paint sealant? The video for the product just showed a machine polisher. Thanks
