- One of the most important steps IMO is the Claybar. You're gonna need a claybar to get the contaminents out of your paint that you can't see. They are there even on a new car! Such things as rail dust, brake dust, airborne pollution, bug parts, etc... etc. You already have one so that's great [img]smile.gif[/img]
- You can choose the "pre-polish" you want. There is Z1 which is an application style, meaning that you apply it directly to your car. There is also a new product called ZFX, which is an additive that you mix with Z2/Z5 to cut cure time down to about 30 minutes, which is especially useful in cold areas where to polish takes longer to dry. Another benefit of using ZFX is that you can do multiple coats in one day.
- The polish you want is really up to you. Since you have a darker colored car I'd strongly suggest Z2 AND Z5. I use Z5 on my car and the swirls are almost gone, albiet my car wasn't taken care of for 4 years.. After you use Z5 make sure to put on some Z2 to get the best shine!
- Z6 is a must. For use in between applications or after a wash, after rain, etc. It helps to bond the layers together as well as enhance the shine.
- Z7 is the car wash. It's only a car wash but it DOES help. I bought it and it works great [img]smile.gif[/img] I used it on my grandparents car and it looked better after I just washed it than when it is just waxed (with whatever wax my grandparents car gets).
- That's about all you'll need, unless you wanna get Z16 (tire dressing) or one of the glass cleaners (which does contain mild abrasives). If you have leather, order the leather products as well ;) :D
Also, see the link that will be bumped for more detailed product descriptions ;)
If you by chance, have any questions....post them in this thread / ask in a new topic / email me or Jen.
