Different wax after cleaner wax? car care questions

Re: Different wax after cleaner wax? car care questions

if you can stuck your nail in the crack, the only two things you can do, as i've been told, were repaint it, or learn to live with it... in my case, repaint

or maybe you can make it a little bit better ( still can't remove it ) , but in order to do this, you can't use cleaner wax, cleaner wax are so lack in cleaing ability, with that damage you'll need M105 or Ultimate compound IMHO...

cleaner wax is only able to remove VERY fine swirl..

and i don't think you should wax your trim, paste cleaner wax will leave white residu on trim ...

and after you wax your car, you'll feel oily on touch , it's normal, it's what make water beading and slick...

yes, you can apply another wax , like turtle wax, it will not look wierd of anything...
but for my self, i won't coat meg wax with turtle wax, since for me, IMO , megs are just better...

Hi, I've been looking to make my car (2006 hyundai sonata) look as new as I can for as long as I can, I bought Meguiar's cleaner wax paste and after washing/drying i waxed the whole car with it.

Is it a coat of wax? or does it clean the car to apply another wax? Can I put turtle wax hard shell over it? or will that make it look weird or not be good for it?

my coworker said I could wax the windows and sunroof molding, as well as the headlight lenses to fill in pitting or oxidation? (windows for beading and molding to fill cracks etc. from aging to keep it healthier and prevent leaks?) I tried scrubbing my headlight with PlastX but I couldn't seem to make the headlight clear as the other one, its got foggy patches, that i can feel w/ my fingernail (slightly rough) I also turtle waxed the front bumper (not meguiars) and the wheels, but the rest of the car got Meguiars cleaner wax. The meguiars gives the paint a soft touch

I couldn't afford clay or detailer/polish, so I used what I had on hand. wheel cleaner, cleaner wax, tire shine, chamois to dry and microfiber finishing towel after that. I got some kind of felt round floppy brush that does a good job getting bugs and grit off the car.

I always get strange or oily looking streaks on plastic molding and glass windows, they never seem to be crystal clear.

I got many scratches around the car either in the clearcoat/paint or past the paint (showing black texture under the paint). since there's probably over 35 i figured it too difficult to fix on my own.

there's also swirls/cobwebs on top of the trunk lid, probably from being improperly buffed before i got the car? (it looks like someone scratched it up placing stuff on it)

I also got a crack in the paint where there is an opening to completely under the pain, its about 1 cm and opens about half a width of a penny, how can this be fixed so it doesn't rust underneath? I can upload pics of everything
