Default Did I make a mistake?

Hey guys,

I Washed my car yesterday, zaino'ed the car. Next day I drove for an hour, brought it home and used a detail mist to remove the very light soiling, and dust, and zaino again. Should I have washed the car again, I have a few hardley visable scrathes, but for all I know they could have been from the ford detail. What is your opinion? Harmed the finish or not at all?

Thanks!!

i wouldnt think that you harmed it if there wasnt alot of dirt on it. next time though, i would take something like a California duster and go over the car to remove all dust/dirt particles that you picked up in that short of a time, and then quick detail it and wax it.

Mistakes can be fixed most of the time. If you don't have a duster, use a microfiber towel to get the dust off. Use the quick detail after the surface has been cleaned.

Maybe I misread it but did you wax your car twice in two days?

I Zaino'ed the car 1 day then, then followed it up with another Zaino. Now your probably going to say thats 2 many waxings. BUT as lond as you dont exceed 3 coats of Zaino in a 24 hr period, which I didnt youll be fine.
