okay you guys dont have to answer this unless you just want to throw some stuff in here, but i found my answer on the forums,
next time i should do some research
Hey guys quick question for you.
When I want to do a wipedown with iso alcohol what percentage should i look for to be safe for my car paint?
Before I do like sealants and waxes
Thank you!
Okay guys I have a few of the Wash pads and i love them, but when it comes to cleaning them its kind of a pain. More the brushing part then the washing part.
The brush is pulling strands of the pad out, tried multiple brushes. I dont want them to dreadlock
the Jumbos dont do it as much, but the regular size isn't staying in the best condition..
Any brushing secrets? or special brushes?
and yes I am doing a dry wash pad. Thanks
And pics of a much needed winter wash while i got the chance
why not just pick up the new blue borderless??
i picked a few up and they're almost the same thing, borderless even better, same thickness, no border, better color, slightly larger...
WIN
That is what I do
Fill bucket with warm water, add my shampoo
Spray her down
Wash
Rinse
Don't so much for winter because IT WILL get dirty in a few hours anyways, especially since it snow then melts in a few days then snows again so it's impossible to stay even remotely clean
i live in iowa too and i cant even imagine rinseless wash being safe in our winter conditions, des moines is horrible.
my red paint looks like it went mudding if i dont give it a wash atleast once a week, like now
my buddy might want it, if i dont give him mine, might be upgrading to a flex
but anyways is that the adams 4 inch backing plate?
would you do PC, 4 inch plate, 4 inch pads, and i think the 6 inch pads are included in your deal?
$120 for all that
My paint is not neglected by any means, and has been clayed previously just wondering how long i can make one piece of clay last.
@Jason I have never used the old clay.. i believe it was in a tub with a screw on lid?
the new box looks really nice but i feel it could seal a little bit better, but i love the look and design of the container. it does shut and clip but not 100% sealed in my opinion
Im going to assume that the question has already been asked but I just got the adams clay for the first time and dont know how many pieces i will be able to break it down into?
2 100g pieces.. will it be able to get away with breaking each 100g piece in half?
will a 50g piece be able to take care of my entire car? dodge charger..
okay, sorry about the confusion.
but the process i had posted seems like a good one for the OP to follow?
1.sealant 2.glaze 3.wax. 4.wash 5.glaze. 6.wash 7.glaze and so on.. untill he wants to strip it and reaply the whole shabang :pc7424:
How does this sound as a suggestion... CHIME IN IF IM WRONG
1. Sealant **of your choice**
2. Brilliant Glaze
3. Americana or Buttery
4. Follow up (bi)weekly with Glaze... would this cause problems due to the fact that wax is already underneath it?
i feel like this way you will have maximum shine longer and still have all the protection
- I don't believe it would be overkill because the last layer of glaze wouldn't last anyways... so its just addition to a normal procedure.
In the past glazes were layered on top of waxes unlike the way its done now by have glaze below the wax
