Seeing as the weather was perfect (dry, but not too hot, and not too much sun) for polishing and waxing, I decided that today would be the perfect opportunity to try out everything I have read on DW, and to try out my latest batch of cleaning products and tools.
So, out came the two buckets (one warm soapy water, one cold clean water), the incredibly soft washmit*, and the Meguires NXT Shampoo*. Washed the car from top to bottom, rinsed gently, then bladed it to be almost, but not quite dry. Finished the drying off with a Meguires Water Magnet Towel*, and then set about with the claybar, followed by a treatment with Autoglym Super Resin Polish. A good hour or so later, out came the Meguires Gold Class Wax*, and then a coat of Autoglym High Gloss Protection*.
To finish it off, the wheels were cleaned with a wheel brush and Wonder Wheels, and the tyres dressed with Meguires Endurance Tyre Dressing Gel* (two coats 10 minutes after each other).
These being the results:
