  • My 1997 Camaro (56K warning)






























    All in all it took me a total of 8 hours maybe more.

    I washed the car, then claybared the car and washed the car again, then polished the car with turtle wax polish, then used meguairs color-x then I used meguairs number 7 glaze, then meguairs gold class wax then meguairs NXT.

    I used a foam pad on a buffer to apply the polish then I wipped off with microfibre towel then buffed it in with a terry cloth bonnet. Then applied the colorx with a terry clothe bonnet and wiped off with microfibre then buffed it in with a clean bonnet, then used terrycloth bonnet to apply the glaze then wiped off with microfibre then used a clean bonnet to buff in. Then used a terry cloth bonnet to apply wax then wiped with microfibre then buffed with terry cloth then used terry cloth bonnet to apply nxt and buffed with terry and then rebuffed...

        it looks very nice indeed but did you said:
        then polished the car with turtle wax polish...
        hey man what are you doing

        Meguiar's has a lot of substitutes for that

        well but that is your decision.. can i make a little comment?

        when i look @ the first picture i see a bit of orange peel on the door.. does this car had a repainting?

        i hope you don't mind if I post this so pleas no hard feelings

        but anyway you did a hell of a job.. my car even is alway parked at the front of my house (i don't have a garage either )

        keep up the good work

            Yes Orange Peels is the devil.

            I COULD NOT find any kind of Meguairs Polish ANYWHERE! I looked high and low for it. They just dont have that kind of stuff in stock anywhere around here

            The car has never been in an accident and has never been repainted...

              Maybe in the future that you start thinking "it starts irritating me"
              is it an idea to repaint the car just with a new clearcoat?
              and then polish the car to one smooth layer...
              i know it's very expensive to do that ... but it's cheaper to to that then a whole repaint...

              but again afterall it looks great
