New Car Paint Care

What are good cleaners and polishes for new car paint? Is #80 too aggressive if there don't appear to be swirls or oxidation?

I'd like to know this too! Right now I use the hand stuff, I'm scared when I switch to G110 that 80 is too harsh for an already near perfect finish?

If you do not plan to do any paint correction you can use any one of the pure polishes from Meguiar's before you apply your wax. But if you have not clayed your car yet it would be best to do this Meguiar's 5-Step Paint Care Cycle.

Here is a list of the pure polishes I was talking about.

#3 = Machine Glaze
#7 = Show Car Glaze
#81 = Body Shop Professional Hand Polish
DC#2 = Deep Crystal System Polish

Re: New Car Paint Care

What about if you want to do some light cleaning, but go ahead and use the G110 to do it? In that cause should you use one of the consumer cleaners with the machine, or go ahead and use one of the pro items?

I find the part of the first question that was asked interesting. Should you not use something like #80 on pretty much perfect paint?

If the paint is in perfect condition and you still want to do some cleaning you can try the Deep Crystal System by hand, if you really want to use a G110 for light cleaning then use this #9 = Swirl Remover 2.0 or #82 = Swirl Free Polish. Remember all these links are clickable.
