sparky Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I'm new to this detailing thing, looking for some pointers on what to use on fresh paint! I was just in Boulder this last weekend too, I didn't know that's where Adam's is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug123 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Nothing like a wax or sealant on fresh paint for 90+ days, maybe 120 days. It's still fresh so it needs to outgas any remaining solvents and the like. Just wash and dry (I recommend the two bucket/2 grit guard/2 washpad method from AJ's videos to minimize the swirls on your freshly painted beauty) - of course, with Adam's car shampoo. It makes washing the car easy and fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky Posted December 7, 2010 Author Share Posted December 7, 2010 Thanks for the reply. I just ordered a hand polish combo, and some car wash shampoo. the car was actually painted, and then cut/buffed in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
