looks great!

Isnt it about time to wash it again?

 

real nice... what did you use?

 

It was actually a two day process.
Yesterday:
First I washed it with Meguiars NXT wash and dried it using microfiber towels. Next was Meguiars step 1 paint cleanser (part one in the three step system). Then I threw a few coats of NXT tech wax on it to finish it off.
Today:
I wasn't happy about the haze from the remaining wax I saw in the sun today. For some reason I'm having trouble with the NXT wax. I figured while the car was clean I might as well clay bar it also. So I wound up using the clay bar and throwing some 3M imperial hand glaze on top of that. I finished it off with the NXT Tech wax spray...for some reason the touch-up spray is easier to use and leaves less of a film than the liquid NXT wax.

 

AHhhh what a beautiful sight.......

Outstanding!!!!!!

 

Jealousy is an awful feeling. I better not find out where you live!

 

Nice job, but WOW....that's a ton of work!!

 

yea it is but look how good it looks....wow

 

Thanks guys. It should be getting dirty again...right about...now.

 

Yeah...I know what your talking about when you say "haze" Like you can see where the wax was. I tried using less of the NXT to see if it wouldnt happen again.
It kind of worked, less remaining "haze" but still there. Black cars= :bang:
Gotta love 'em when their clean though
I think I'll try the paste next.

 

That's the exact reason I have a black one. I have the benefit of leaving her in the garage most of the time, so she stays pretty clean!

 

Very nice Zach... now do mine! Do mine! Do mine!
Think of how much fun you had doing yours.... don't you want to wash and wax mine as well????

 

Zach, thanks for waxing her. Now just take off that spoiler and give her back to me! (see my signature)

 

Yeah . . . gee I just love my Mustang when it's clean , it's the other two black cars I own that drive me nuts . . . . oh . . . . and the fact that I live on a dirt road :bang: .

All that washing gives your arms a great work out though . . . wax on, wax off grasshopper .

 

Not trying to ignite the whole Meguiars vs Zaino battle but from what you described, try Zaino. Easy on, Easy off. I used Meguiars(not NXT though) on my black F150 and it was great but then I used Zaino on my wifes black explorer and tossed the Meguiars in the trash. No haze and no crud left on plastic pieces either. Give it a try!

 

For some reason the NXT liquid wax doesn't like to cooperate with my car. The NXT spray wax/ detailer works really well though. I think from now on I'm going to use Gold Class instead of NXT. Go figure...I paid almost $20 for the NXT :bang:

 

Just did my black bird 2 days ago. I havent put that much effort into detailing this car the last 2 years. Guess Im getting lazy, and now know gettin a new car and dont care as much.
But had the local parts store send out any bottle of wax. They sent the Gold class.
Wasnt bad. And considering its been a long time since the last wax I was happy.

My favorite "cheap" bottle of wax tho, especially for a black car is Zymol.

 

You are hired to do mine www.1969boss429.com

 

Me neither as Meguire's makes some great products!

But as far as Zaino is concerned, the ease with which you can take it off... I have never had haze at all..... heck one of the first times I used it, it RAINED halfway through taking it off...... :bang:

After the rain stopped, I finished buffing out the car........
No problems and looked GREAT!

(I have used Meguiars #26 yellow wax though too and that stuff ROCKS)

 

I used the nxt and was not happy. I then got some meguiars carnuba wax and it worked great.
