Odiesback Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I have a two month old car and at this points I have only washed and dried it with Adams two bucket and Detail Spray. The paint is virtually swirl free but I could feel some roughness using the platic bag test, so I think is time for claying and some polishing. This is what my course of action based on the products I already have: 1-Wash/Dry 2-Clay 3-Revive Polish 4-Spray sealant 5-second coat of sealant on the front. My goal is to add some protection to the paint by hand now until I can buy the Flex machine and all the products for machine work. Your input is greatly appreciated. thanks.

TK427 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 And then add some Americana or wax for extra protection to top it all off!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2hill Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 That plan should work fine Odie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Sounds like a good plan! I also would throw some Americana on there as well, love that stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odiesback Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 Thanks for all the replies! I could apply the Americana but I dont have it right now. My goal as stated is to give the paint some protection until I get a hold of the machine and all I need for a machine shine. I cant picture myself doing all this work by hand for too long... so I'd rather wait for the machine. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Adam's Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Excellent plan Odie... that'll get you a nice improvement in the looks as well as a great amount of protection. Be sure to get some before/during/after pics to share and have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odiesback Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 All right... I am very, very sore right now but cant complain every time I look at the results of this my very first attempt. It took me six hours of intense labor and the car is flawless considering that was done by hand. The only thing I could not get off was this three tiny circles on the hood. I tried to take a pic but they were too small and the surface was too shiny I dont even know how to describe them actually... other than that it looks incredible.. here some pics (I was too focused on the task ahead that I did not think of taking some before) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
Odiesback
I have a two month old car and at this points I have only washed and dried it
with Adams two bucket and Detail Spray. The paint is virtually swirl free
but I could feel some roughness using the platic bag test, so I think is
time for claying and some polishing.
This is what my course of action based on the products I already have:
1-Wash/Dry
2-Clay
3-Revive Polish
4-Spray sealant
5-second coat of sealant on the front.
My goal is to add some protection to the paint by hand now until I can
buy the Flex machine and all the products for machine work.
Your input is greatly appreciated. thanks.
