6hrs of cleaning and waxing

6hrs of cleaning and waxing

well cleaned and waxed my car today, turned out pretty good i must say. used a 4 piece mothers wax kit, good gleam comming off bessy today...lol




cheers,

Looks fantastic. Did you do it by hand or use an oscillating buffer?

both...lol used a buffer for the hood and roof, hand for the rest...lol hurtin now but it was worth it

dayumm......six hours?!?!...btw your wheels will look nice if they were black or bronze..imo.but overall nice car bro!

is the 4 piece mothers kit the only one u used? whats the retail value of that?

6 hours is fairly normal. I don't know about the 4 step but I usually do the 3 step mothers deal. Instead of the mother's stage 1 pre-wax cleaner, i just use a polishing compound because it pretty much does the same thing for me plus it polishes the car. Then I will do two light coats of the sealer/glaze and lightly buff it. Then I would do step 3 where the actual wax comes in. Do 2 light coats and maybe do a couple more coats onthe hood and trunk and roof. Then get rid of all the extra wax build up with my trusty old oral-b tooth brush and Then spend a good 30 minutes buffing the car.. this process lasts me about 2 months with the car being parked outside everyday in 90+degrees weather in the sun or about 6 months parked in the garage.

Now the part that sucks is after the 6 hours of cleaning the outside of your car, you get too lazy and tired to clean the inside of the car. lol

Looks nice. I really like Mothers, great product does a great job. I'm going to try the ICE kit next been getting rave reviews.

ICE is the best stuff I ever used!

i did the whole car, inside and out...lol got all the winter dirt and debris out of the interior.

I use ICE also. Great product

Your car is what I model my car ........ You sure know your stuff

my detailing takes 10 hours, so im envious u can do yours in 6.

1)car wash (10 bucks for the bottle)
2)claybar (20)
3) rewash
4) polish (40 bucks)
5) sealant (40 bucks)
6) glaze (25 bucks)
7) wax (25 bucks)
8)tire shine (10? 20? cant remember)
9) armourall all the trim (5 bucks)
10) stoners for windows (5 bucks)


All I gota say is... theres so much more stuff out there than just ICE, once you reach the next price bracket its like a drug

Ya'll with no surface area on the paint. I'm the jealous one. Full detail on the truck is a 2-3 day process.

i did all that minus the clay bar, acually substitute the clay bar for 10" symonds buffer $60. maybe next time i'll clay bar it.

You know to be completely honest its people like you I really appreciate. Most people i know just take their cars to the automatic car wash and waste their money. Unlike them I love putting the hours of effort into cleaning my car just so when im done I can say I did it and at least have a little pride in my car.

Looks good man keep up the good work

lmao its time to start taking ur pics at another location ;D

we need to see thr shine and take a pics when theres good sunlight by looking the pics it looks cloudy.

clay baring is rare for me. once you do it, you never really have to do it again as long as you take care of your car. when i use polish compound, it becomes just as smooth. anyway, don't clay your car if your paint is already smooth.

ya that location is my driveway, i was tired after all the sun i got, i'll take some different pictures later...lol

looks nice and clean

oh thats another mistake people do, don't strip your wax and wax your car where sunlight is hitting you directly. not very good for the wax.
