How to keep my black Ep clean!!!!!!!

[heihei0330]

Can someone suggest good products for my black Ep under each condition?


1) Normal Washing?
2) Waxing?



Ps. My car has a lot of swirl marks, the spider web looking ones. How do I recover?

Many car shampoos are good...I use Meguiar's personally...

For your swirl marks and waxing...you'll probably want to do the Meguiar's or Mother's 3/4 step process...if the cleaner does not remove the swirl marks then get ScratchX and use it after your wash (before cleaning, polishing, and waxing).

I notice dat u r living in toronto too, where can i get a hand on these products.

You can get all the stuffs that I mentioned at a Canadian Tire near you...and if you want to save yourself a couple of hours then you should think of getting an orbital buffer as well...

The products I mentioned is not Meguiar's professional series...I've yet to find a store that sells their professional series products in Canada...

I use the Meguires 3 step, and it works great!

I also recomend getting a "California Water Blade" for drying. It doesn't leave any water marks and you can dry your car in about half the time as you would with a chamois or towel. For $30 they are a little expensive, but worth it!

Also consider getting a good 6"-8" buffer/polisher. This makes waxing a little quicker (which is good when you have 3 steps!) and a quick buff job after polishing will have GREAT results!

You should be able to get one at any major auto store; Pep-Boys, Murray's etc...

I got mine at Canadian Tire(a Canuck mecca!).

I wonder how well will the new Clorox with Teflon Bathroom Cleaner work to repel dirt off my car......;)

Why don't they make a car wash with Teflon? The dirt will not stick to it... and you could fry and egg on your roof on a hot day without it sticking....;) That will be wonderfull all you would have to do it just literally hose it off if needed.

I'll also put a good word in for the cali water blade, 2nd best drying method I've used. The first? A 200mph leaf blower. You'd be amazed at how well it works.

Also on a black car I reccomend Zaino with P21/S Wax on top, here's some pics posted on s2ki by Dr T.







more info about that combination can be found here http://www.s2ki.com/forums/showthrea...hreadid=131449

Good luck! Black is the hardest color to keep clean but man when it's clean it looks great!

Hey Karim, cool old trail 70 in that pic. I think those are worth a couple of bucks.
