  • Working Order

    I know I should
    Step 1 Wash
    Step 2 Clean
    Step 3 Polish
    Step 4 Protect
    Step 5 Maintain

    I've got some polish, some clay, scratch x, and swirl remover (from the pro. line)
    I was wondering how to work it the best`?
    Of course wash the car, but then..
    Clay it or remove swirl marks? Or should I use an paint cleaner first?
    I wanna have the best result with the most shine..!
    After I've clayed, cleaned (paint) and removed scratches (in the order you tell me) then I will use the step 2 (out of the step 3 system) and use the polish..
    After that apply the waxes and protectants..

    What swirl remover? Do you have a machine or doin this by hand?
    Wash
    Clay
    Remove swirls (scratch X by hand... With a machine 83/80 or 82/80 or consumer line Color X)
    Polish with a pure polish (#3 or #7 or use the consumer line Deep Crystal System Polish)
    Wax (general term for apply last test protection, either wax or sealant)
    Mainting is done so you do not need to polish the car for a few months. Use Ultimate Quick Detailer, regular washes (2 bucket method), wax when needed
    I use the ultimate quick detailer about 2x a week, and always right after a rain

      Wash the car
      Clay the car and use some Quik detailer either pro line or consumer.
      than Use cleaner wax on the car. Than use your swirl mark remover if its Scratch X or from the pro line. Use your system polish on the car go ahead and apply the wax and do a final spray down with some detailer spray.
