In terms of paint protection, I don't usually bother but I do like to detail the car myself. This is a very simplified guide for a new car - I won't go into detail about each step - head over to detailing world for more:
Usually start with
WASH
CLAY
MACHINE POLISH
Gtechniq C2V3
Then depending on the mood I'm in, HD WAX - you don't really need to Wax after the C2V3 but I like the finish.
Wheels are always removed and sealed using Planet Polish Wheel Seal and Shine and tyres are dressed with Gyeon Q2 and I tend to heat seal them.
Then usually a regular wash and dried using a diluted C2V3 spray top up.
Hope that helps... |
Thanks for the advice! I use the two bucket method for cleaning, the limit of my ability from that point on has been applying a basic wax (standard Autoglym offering). The thought of machine polishing my own car scares the life out of me!
I was thinking of going down the coating route as a base on which i could then maintain? Guess what I'm trying to figure out is, whether or not it is worth it for a coating, considering I do about 25k miles per year.
