Griots show wax

http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg

thats my car.. my favorite wax after doing the cleaner wax.. clay bar.. quick detail.. buff till you drop steps is to use griots show wax.. this is a 25 doller SHIPPED bottle of wax.. no abrasives at all what so ever, very healthy for your paint and will last for a long time.. this is REALLY the perfect show wax... i wash and wax my car the correct way atleast 3 times a week.. and each detail is like 3-4 hours long.. im obsessed with detailing cars and ive found that this is by far the best wax out there.

http://www.griotsgarage.com/catalog.jsp?&SKU=11171

thats the link

i suggest if you are showing.. this is the wax for you

Actually, When you buy Griots products, you are buying the name. NOT QUALITY.

If you want to know a big secret, go to a Harley Davidson store and buy "S100 Wax". It's easy to apply. It's extremely shiney. And it lasts a long time.

Anytime you want to blow people away with a show car "Perfect Shine", you will need to get a PC Buffer and polish your clear coat before applying a wax. But, if you're in a rush, just use the s100.

BELIEVE ME.

Example of my work w/ s100:

Buy this: http://autopia-carcare.com/pc-7424-kit.html

This is a kit that comes with the upgraded accessories to get you started.

Because this is an orbital buffer, it is ALMOST impossible to swirl your paint as opposed to any rotary buffer.

ROTARY = BAD
ORBITAL = GOOD

(unless you are a SUPER trained professional)

This should be plenty to get you started. Then just make sure to buy your choice polishes and waxes.

Hope this helps.
