Detailing 101

Found a simple and effective way to maintain the paint of my new white car.

Since it is brand new, the first "treatment" was
- a washing with Microtex Car Wash
- waxing with Pure Carnauba Wax (Mothers)
- topping up with (Mothers) FX Spraywax.

Microtex Wash cleans grime without polishing (or removing any previously applied wax). Carnauba Wax provides protection (it lasts longer than synthetic polymers). The Spraywax (I think this is silicone-based) enhances the sheen of the Carnauba wax and adds another protective layer.

For subsequent maintenance, this is the routine
1. Weekly car wash with Microtex, then FX Spraywax after each wash
2. Every 4-6 weeks clean and wax with Carnauba Cleaner Wax (Mothers, Meguiars, or Turtle Wax), and FX Spraywax after waxing
3. Every 4-6 months a (Mothers) Clay bar treatment.


See the sheen!
