OK a little about whats going on....I bought a 94 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo as sort of a project ride. I am new to working on cars so I thought this would be a good one to work on to learn and whatnot. So I want to learn how to put a nice polish and wax on and try to get this paint looking as good as it can. I have been reading alot and never knew waxing your car got this hardcore. I am really interested in it though and want to learn the most I can. Overall the paint looks pretty damn good to me for being 18yrs old. The only bad thing I can see is the hood is like all spider webbed or cracked...like thousands of cracks in the clear coat it seems, I am not sure of the correct term for it but I can post pics if needed but it seems it may have happened from the heat perhaps?!@? Well there is a $40 off $100 coupon floating around the net for Advance Auto, so I went ahead and got (was gonna do in this order)(All Maguiars) 1. Smooth Surface Clay Kit 2. Ultra Compound 3. NXT 2.0 I thought that is how I should do it but I started reading more and now I am just a little confused. Also I will be using a porter cable 7424 polisher. Questions are..1. Am I using the right products in the right order? 2. What can I do to the hood, is it safe to polish and wax or will it just flake away? and 3. What type of maguairs pads should I get and will they fit on the Porter Cable Polisher? Also any hints tips or secrets will be appreciated also. Thanks for all your help guys...
