FRED gets a much needed Clay Bar & Wax! PICS ADDED!

[Zembonez]

A lot of elbow grease involved, but Fred looks all shiny and new. Man the clay bar makes a huge difference in the way the paint feels.

Paint looks incredibly good for 4.5 years. I'll post some outside pics later.

EDIT: MO PICS!

Nice, now get some good wax on it and it will really look great.

 

[Zembonez]

HMMM. I wonder what kind that might be?

Still using my Meguiars this round.

Jrod... what's your best wax?

 

[Bigredmariner]

Well I could make several suggestions, but there is also no need to throw out perfectly good stuff just to switch brands. That may not be sound business advise but money doesn't grow on trees you know. At least not in Burnet county.

I'd be interested in trying some good wax. Name it.

The two waxes are Buttery: which is a pretty nice wax. Easy on, Easy off, a thick liquid consistency. It lasts a few washes depending on rain etc.. And at about $20 a bottle it is attractive in price as well.

The other is Americana: Premium Paste Wax, coming in at $70 for a tub you will have sticker shock until you use it. After one full wax job you will see the benefits, easy application/ removal. Beautiful shine and a long lasting for garage kept vehicles.

I applied it to the Flex, the car went the entire summer only visiting the laser wash while I was gone. 3 months later the car still looked amazing and water beaded right off of it. If I never sell another tub of it to anyone, I will continue to use it for my personal stuff. I now see what all the fuss is about.

I have heard nothing but good things(other than price) about the Americana....Want to get some, but will need to wait a bit

Jrod, I need to get a tub of that wax. I'll get with you.
