Re: 1994 Dodge Stealth

Nice work..Looking good.

One going over with polish is all that's needed.

More coats of wax? I don't think it makes it more glossier. Two thin coats would be all that's required,if you want to apply more than one.

Looks great though!

Re: 1994 Dodge Stealth

nice

i dont think 4 coats of polish is necessary though
one will do just fine.

Would putting more coats increase the shine?

Hi Simon!

Just so you know I had to go in and edit the IMG coding because I believe you use the "Image link location" as opposed to the "Image location" when you tried to embed them.
It's working great now!

Thanks Mark,

Oh and just for the sake of more pictures, here's my first detail job:

Steps:
-meguiar's clay kit
-meguiar's step 1 paint cleaner
-5 layers of meguiar's step 2 polish
-4 layers of meguiar's gold class wax

Last time, the wax didn't leave a brown residue. The polish is getting old, so I'm wondering if that might be the problem. My latest job was done with a brand new bottle of Meguiar's Gold Class wax so i have no idea why it left that residue. Does anyone think that something in the new 2009 products is reacting with the gold class wax and causing it to not set properly?

This is only my second time detailing a car, so any advise would be appreciated.

Steps Used(in order):
-Washed with Dawn soap to eat all old products and wax on car
-Clayed Car with Meguiar's Clay Kit
-Ultimate Compound twice on the entire car
-Spot treated with Scratch X 2.0
-4 layers of Meguiar's Step 2 Polish
-3 layers of Gold Class Wax


One issue I had that hopefully someone can help me with: After waxing, there was this brownish residue all over the car. I just took a microfiber towel and had to rub really hard to get it off, but I'm just wondering if the wax will still protect the car since i had to rub. Also, does anyone think it will last as long?
