My Washing and Waxing Process

[MichaelInChicago]

Hi everyone,

Today, I took a few hours to detail my car and here are the steps I performed:

1. Washed car with Dawn soap then dried car (I use Dawn before every detail process)
3. Sprayed Sonax Fallout on entire vehicle, waited 5 minutes, resprayed Sonax and then used a soft hand mit to wipe down entire surface
4. Rinsed with water then dried car
5. Sprayed entire car with Meguires Ceramic Spray Wax and then used soft microfibre cloth to massage wax into all panels.
6. Rinsed car with high pressure spray to active wax then performed a final rinse
7. Dried car and then used Armor All Tire Foam on all tires.


Car came out looking great.

Nice, thanks for sharing.
If you get the chance, try Tech Shine in place of the spray wax.

Clay bar?

I didn't need one. The paint was just so smooth to the touch after the Dawn and Sonax (I had clayed the car in late March).

Try using some Duragloss 601 with 111 before the spray wax. You will not be disappointed!
