    1.Wash first.
    2.Apply Clay.
    Either rinse and wash again or remove Quick Detailer/Clay residue away with MF towel.
    3.DC#1 or ScratchX - or both I suppose if you really want.
    4.Wax
    5.Sit back.
    6.Drink beer.
    7.Feel Satisfied.
    8.Watch as neighbor wrecks his car from becoming blind from that bling-bling shine.


    Thats, like, eight steps but I don't think Megs will support a couple of those.

      Well...

      1. Clay
      2. Paint Cleaner

      Now ScratchX and Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner are both paint cleaners and its not necessary to use both products. So.... You could ScratchX the entire vehicle and skip the Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner -or- you could ScratchX just the trouble spots with scratches and swirls and use Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner on the entire vehicle. Make sense?
