Hello, next month I get now my first new car 😉 now the question arises how I should treat the paint best after the crossing 1; Meguiar’s ME G7164 Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo and Conditioner 2; Meguiar’s G18211EU Ultimate Paste Wax 3; Meguiar’s G7616EU Gold Class Premium Quik Detailer is this right to treat the new car like this? Thank you Martin

I’m looking for a way to make my Audi A3 BJ 2004 “beautiful” again ! Unfortunately, the car is mostly outside and is currently irregular, but basic, clean! Unfortunately, I don’t know very well about wax and other care products and there seems to be a huge amount of information in the forum that I am a little beaten up as a layman. I would like to pass that car to a professional, from me also private, d it takes care of itself then. Unfortunately I haven’t heard anything big here, except the usual 0815 conditioners who look after the car dealerships as subcontractors. If someone has more detailed information I would be happy. Would also be ready to take the car a bit away for it. So something like Düsseldorf etc would be ok. To the car I can possibly still say that there are one or other smaller not particularly deep scratches but otherwise the car is in a “normal” Zu The car is ONLY in series, but will be modified a little in the near future.

Well, my Ford is 1 year old and is dark blue. But now he has already some streaks of the wash road on the hood. The car is washed 3 times a month, has not been polished or waxed. I want to do this by hand and have already bought all the products like polishing cloths, hand polishing aid, polishing sponges etc. Only with the selection of the products I am at a loss because of the many articles. I like the Sonax stuff, but that is supposed to be inferior. My varnish is n well and new, I just want to get it on high gloss and get the Swirls away. In addition, the polish should contain grinding parts or? What does it look like with such a new varnish with a paint cleaning? I like this Miguriars Crystal Deep Step 1-3, but that is also very elaborate. It also does not have to be a wax for 50€ the can. I am not a high-end user. What do you think, which medium-priced products (Politur+Wachs) are to be used or recommended? Is So nax bad? Is Meguriars recommended?

Hello together, I wanted to get to know how you care for your vehicles, what do you recommend with a new car? On the internet there are so many different offers that I don’t know anymore how to care for a new car best. Does anyone have experience with Brilla Coating, or Teflon seals?

Does anyone know about the use of color wax? Can you use it to sound a car? I would like to give my car a slight glimmer in season, e.g. green or yellow. Question: Do you get to apply a colour wax evenly in order to create a tint? How pronounced is this? Then another idea I picked up in a car forum: There are now paint systems for rims and also the entire car for colouration from several suppliers, which you can I don’t want to advertise now, but YT is full of the stuff. I don’t want to recolor the car, but I have another idea: I want to attach effect to the wax or also to a seal. I’m now on a supplier of pigments with which one should be able to dye such a relevant paint. Specifically, 50g per paint bucket are used. Since I asked myself if that was enough, I went to alternative forums and Vid eos cleverly made and found that the number 1 supplier of such CAR varnishes in fact fills only a few bags for an entire bucket, which is sufficient for a complete painting of a car in 4 layers. Apparently have the strong dyeing effect. Now to the actual question: Let’s assume, I want to provide my car with some tint – would it work, to transfer a spray wax with pigments or also a polymer seal? Especially the P seal interests me, because I with the car wants to have as little work as possible. Loves some stable Shine product on it rub and finish. Which means would be available e.g. in liquid form, but does not come as a spray can, so I can mix it together? Idea?

Feels everyone recommends only hand wash

Hello everyone, since my washing box (Frechen Europaallee) is unfortunately closed. Look at least so from is fenced and the road has been torn open. I now find a new one where I can continue to wash with hand. The only thing I have found is the AVEX but there is no hand wash and bucket laundry. Keep your own remedy with you. I hope one can help me here. Thanks already in advance.

Hello, I’m getting my new Opel Combo E Life next week. The car is used mostly for rides with the dog in everyday life and in operations with the rescue dog squadron. So it’s over floor and stone, not just cozy on the highway therefore. I’m more animal man, less car lover. But since I want to drive my new car again 15 or 20 years, I still want to take care of it as well as possible. I hadn’t done that with my previous station wagon, he stopped but without rust on the paint 15 years. But this time I want to do at least a little bit of good for my car. I say quite honestly: As a woman I do not have a lot of desire for car hand wash (at pans this is something else ) and I also have a very full everyday life and hardly a few minutes of free time, which I then prefer to spend in dog sport etc., than polish with the car. Therefore I look for a good minimum program, which is nevertheless better than nothing. I have already read many pages in the Care Forum here. But I am still overwhelmed with the selection of products. I have limited myself to Sonax. There are now the following things on the list for the outside: SONAX XTREME Protect&Shine SONAX XTREME Spray+Seal SONAX XTREME Ceramic Plastic Sealing SONAX XTREME Ceramic Spray Sealing SONAX XTREME Ceramic QuickDetailer SONAX Rim Beast Rim Cleaner What makes sense now? And is something important missing? Which routine can be recommended? The only thing that seems really clear to me so far: 2x a year would make sense to SONAX XTREME Protect&Shine, at least before the winter and during the spring year. And should I then apply SONAX XTREME Ceramic QuickDetailer after every wash? Or would SONAX XTREME Ceramic Spray Sealing? Or should one take the Ceramic Spray Sealing instead of Protect&Shine and instead of QuickDetailer? I haven’t even done this for my steel rims for the last 15 years. Now it’s aluminum rims. Don’t know me at all. Can you recommend something to me? And tell me when to apply what best? Thank you very much Lavandasca

Moin people! I recently sealed my car. But I noticed 2 days later, at the first laundry that the Beading is not as great as in many other areas of the car. I probably did not apply the sealing carefully enough at these places. The water runs off super, only not as fast and beautiful as at other places. Therefore my question, what to do if I want to seal over it again ? Must I degrease before with a mixture of IPA, or dimply it polish, or simply on it with the seal (vehicle is clean of course ^^ ).

Hello. I want to polish and grow my car. Ask a few questions. I have the Sonax Xtreme Polish + Wax 2. Can I use the Meguiars Ultimate Paste Wax after treatment with the Sonax or not? After polishing and growing, what shampoo and SnowFoam can I use so that the Wax is not “attached”? Thank you for your support.
