My car still has a nice paint job afew scratches here and there but overall the car still shines.My question is,on thise spots that i have scratches,should i use compound(on a corner of the trunk,small spot on the hood...)or should i buff the car with a polymer
and a buffer?

 

was looking at my car and came to this conclusion:clay,glaze and wax should be enough.

 

I wouldnt bother doing anything until you polish it. Polishing is what really brings the paint to life.
The clay is an important step, but one that could be skipped if necessary. Polishing/cleaning on the other hand is one that should not be avoided.

 

how would you recomend i go about it?

 

Products available to you?
Mothers, megs at local hops?
Do you have applicators, microfibers?
A PC woul be ideal but not always economical for some. Im assuming this will be done by hand and will guide ou to those products suited for better use by hand. I just need to know where your going to be aquiring your products from.....

 

I was going to clay then seal. No clay, polish and seal sounds good to me. I really have nothing other than Mothers carnuba, just use cut up microfiber. Buy online is OK with me, since I can't find the products at Autozone.

I'll take the guide from exceldetail. Which one of you guys has the online store?

A PC is about six months away. I just want to seal this car soon.

 

Exceldetail who, BTW, provides excellent service.
