Re: My first car detailing...questions, suggestions, opinions

hello

This morning I did some photos of the surface.

here they are:



This, instead, is a key-scratch that someone did on my car.




In your opinion, can it be solved with some product, or it is too deep?

Well.. that key scratch may be too much for any product, looks like it may be down to the primer. But you can certainly try to improve it.

But I'm going to say to go with some Ultimate Compound for the car. Just remember to hold the applicator flat, and work with your palm and across your fingers. Dont work with the tips of your fingers.

And then just choose which milder products you want for regular detailing in the future.

Re: My first car detailing...questions, suggestions, opinions

- NXT GENERATION GLASS CLEANER - Great product, use less than you think
- SWIRLX - Good
- ULTIMATE COMPOUND - Good
- ULTIMATE QUIK WAX - Good, use less than you think
- QUIK CLAY STARTER KIT - Good
- NXT GENERATION TECH WAX LIQUID 2.0 - Good
- NXT GENERATION CAR WASH SHAMPOO - Good
- STRATCHX 2.0 - Probably not needed
- DEEP CRYSTAL POLISH - Also optional

You may want an extra bottle of Quick Detailer.

Of course there are a million products you can add for fun.......

I'd say that as a first purchase may be enough for now ....
