I would start with a white pad. Better to use the least aggressive products/pads first, then work to more aggressive if needed

 

You are equipped for the job. Take your time & you will have is shining like a new penny. Have to love what dealers do to cars. :incazzato:

 

Looking good! I see you couldn't get the brake dust off the wheels. :wink:

 

Nufinish is a great wax for wheels, as it can take high heat

 

Hey Dave this is not the lambasting site, we're the friendly one's. Go to the sewing site for lambasting. :wink:

You have a very nice selection of detail products there. One addition I would make is to add Hyro to your list. OK tow additions add Pre-Wow too.

I like Epic & use it twice a year. Hydro is used every car wash. I did not care for Glossingbannas. Just my .02....

 

Sarcasm back at ya....

You won't need Pre-Wow often, but when you do nothing beats it.

The Hydro I have been using is the spray wax. After every wash a spray some on & wipe the car down with a high quality waffle weave towel.

I have not used Hydro wash yet. Mystique is the wash I use.

Make sure to lay in a supply of high quality microfiber towels. You find many uses for them.

That of one more thing. Get some Sonax wheel cleaner. It is the best I have used. Octane Guy has it.

 

Welcome to the fun world of OCD Detailing.:lol:

You have a great list of Prima supplies listed. I don't think you will ever need cut, I have a bottle and have only opened it once in 2 years. Prima Swirl will take care of most of your polishing needs.

After you have all these great products make sure you don't skimp on cheap microfiber towels. The ones at BJ's and Sam's club are junk. Cobra makes great MF towels.

Sonax wheels clear is hands down the best stuff you can get.

If you don't want to waste money on big drying towels get an electric leaf blower from Sears and when you are done washing your car you can air dry it. It works great to blow all the water out from the mirrors, light, vents, grill. This way you only need one MF towel with a few mist of Hydro to dry you whole car after a wash.

Have fun detailing and post up some pictures when you are done.

 

Towels, buy LOTS of towels. Good ones, or don't bother with any of it.

Sounds like a good list you have there:beer, now you need your wife to get you an orbital for that December gift giving time

 

Banana Gloss is great, a wax that is easy on and off and won't stain black plastic. You need to apply at least twice a year, but the depth of shine is great, especially on dark colors.

 

Richard usually ships really quickly. You could always give them a call.

 

Well he is a great resource for detailing and his video is excellent.

With an order that big I don't think he would think your are bothering him.

 

Good luck and have fun doing it.

Oh and those marks are a dealer option know as DISCO. :lol:

Prima Swirl will remove them with ease on an Orange lake county pad on a PC.

 

See above: White pad and Swirl.

I have used Cut only one tme when I first got my car to take out some paints abuse done some other idiot.

 

Our Clubbies are identical except for the wheels.

I am cleaning mine up now, and I thought it looked great, until I saw your picture.

I guess mine needs more than a Meguiar's clay treatment and NuFinish applied with a random orbital buffer.

Don't dis the NuFinish, it actually does a good job, just not great like that pre Banana wow package of stuff you bought.

My birthday is in 9 more days....this has me thinking...... :idea:

 

People make fun of Nufinish but it is a good wax. I have also used it on wheels before with great results.

I also use Rain-X on the inside barrels of my rims and brake dust, tar and other crap does not stick to them anymore. It also makes them a lot easier to clean.

Both sets of rims are silver. (R90's and Enkei Racing PF01)
