Re: Wax to use on original red paint that keeps the shine the longest?

Prep is key in getting the best results
1. Good car wash, Dawn dishsoap, to remove old wax.
2. Claybar the paint, removes contaminants imbedded in the paint.
3. Paint cleaner to remove swirls,blemishes and fine scratches.
4. Polish the paint, this feeds the paint with vital oils and polishes the paint for a superior shine.
5. Wax the paint, use a quality wax and apply 2 coats, give the wax 24 hrs to cure between coats this will ensure complete coverage.
6. Use a spray detailer/wax to maintain the paint after washing or when dusty and not dirty enough to wash.
