Freshly Detailed (Still learning the art)

[4601S/C]

Just detailed it on the weekend. Weather was perfect for it (Cool & overcast all day). Not the best for pics though. I'm trying to use up some of my old stuff I use for my DD, but I'm gonna start trying different brands. I just feel like I can get more 'pop' using something else. I'm still a bit of a newbie with this stuff though. I'm thinking about starting out with Meguairs and going from there until I get better at doing this. I seems like lots of people swear by Collonite, and I've seen some Zaino results as well. All I did was dust it off this morning and snapped some pics on the way home from work this afternoon.

Current Arsenal (Hand applied):

• Nu Finish: Polish
• Meguiars Good Class Premium Wax

Tips & comments appreciated.

Glaze works wonders on redfire...along with tons of other cleaners, polishers etc. The list goes on and on lol check out the show n shine section

you need a DA or a rotary buffer to remove the light swirls from pic 4. Since your new to the detail world. I would suggest a DA like a porter cable. This with several types of pads is a full proof plan to remove light swirls/scratches without much skill. I personaly love the Pinnacle Souveran, gives a great shine but doesnt last long.

Also making sure you wash and dry the car properly will reduce swirls in the future.
