I am going to do a full detail on my WDP tl this weekend.
It has a LOT of swirls and marks that should polish out, but I do not quite know which pads to use with my polishes.

I have both menzerna power finish and optimum finish II, with a variety of different 6 inch pads for the PC. I also have a lil' megs ultimate compound for the really rough stuff.

My method is to wash with foamgun, clay, rewash, polish, maybe rewash, maybe seal with CG M seal, and wax.

Ultimately, my questions to you are:

ATM I do not have any other wax than meguiars...is it a waste of time to do all the polish, clay, seal, etc and then put on a 10 dollar bottle of wax?

Secondly, what polish/pads do you recommend using and in what order....It's a white car.

This will be the first time using the PC. Do you have any tips/recommendations?

Can I use the pc on bumpers and stuff being that they are plastic?

I appreciate all the help in advance, and reallyy look forward to hearing back from you guyz.

 

what pads do you have.

I'm going to say on a white car Menzerna Power Finish will do a lot.

yes you can use the pc on your painted bumpers.

here is a video you can watch.

As far as wax go ahead and apply the wax you got, use it till its gone and then upgarde to something else.

 

Okay, thanks man!

I have green, white, black, orange, blue. And if I do apply the sealant, is it okay that the car sits outside overnight, being that the sealant must sit for 24 hours.

 

The sealant doesn't have to sit on the car for 24 hours .. Most sealants take 24 hours to cure ( cross link) but they dry in minutes. Soon as it hazes wipe it off. The 24 hours is refering to the wait time between layers or adding a wax over top.

 

Yeah, thats what I meant. l0l. Is it okay for it to wait overnight outside before I apply wax?

Sorry for the confusion.

 

Its prefered you wash it if its sitting outside.
