I buy a pack of MicroFiber towels from Sam's Club. I think it's either 14 or 25 to a pack. I get the blue ones for polishing and the orange ones for washing. I always wash the towels by themselves and NEVER use Fabric Softener on them. I just hang them out on the line to dry.

thanks for all the great tips guys. anyways I use Meguiars ultimate paste wax. It's great I had some scratches in my clearcoat after using that wax it's almost like they disapeared, and it shines really well and lasts long. so I recomend it.

Keep it dusted and shoot Ultimate Detailer or Quik Wax on it as often as possible...see how smooth and glossy it gets

Before:

After:


i just used 3m's medium and finishing polish and meguiars nxt wax.!! I found most polishing compounds too be too thin for a cut... Fords white paint sucks so i didnt wanna take much off, i went too cosco and got a huge bag full of microfibre cloths for 20$ I also masked the body and undercoated the whole frame and about 3'' of the body, also found at Greggs distrubting or Napa will get you color matched paint in a spray can!!

now i havta get a stang!!

There two ways to go. one is adams butter wax. says its 100% carnuba. This will give u a deep wet look but doesn't last as long. Other one i suggest is called driven. this is not carnuba but a sythentic polymer. Last longer but im told its not as glossy. I havent noticed any difference in the two. They both go on easy and wipe off easy. If i had to choose between the two i choose the one called driven.
