thanks

 

and what does a cleaner wax do? just clean the paint to get ready for polish? thanks sorry for the questions just tryin to get some good advice

 

You can put your LC pads in the washer and wash them with normal detergent. You can also just wash them by hand with Dawn dish soap, they will last a lot longer this way.

A glaze is used after the polish and before the wax. It is designed to make the paint feel really slick plus bring out more wetness and depth to your paint.

My Wet Wax and Wet Glaze are designed to give a really deep and wet look plus add good protection to your paint.

A cleaner wax is a polish and wax all in one. You don't get the extra depth and wetness you get by doing everything separately.

 

I have been using Snappy Clean (link here) for my last 2 details. Since I am doing 3 cars this week, I just keep the bucket and solution in the garage and reuse it until I am done with all 3. Works great, and easy too. Also threw my hand applicators in there to remove any polish/wax as well. Then just rinse off and let sit out to dry.

I just started using glaze myself and it definately gives some nice depth so I'd recommend it, especially since your using a PC anyway.

 

This is the shizzle for cleaning pads: http://www.lakecountrymfg.com/padclean.html

 

Holy crap! lol. The snappy clean is good stuff and its never taken more then the pressure of a hose to remove all the old polish/wax.

 

That thing was sooooo easy to use and made some nasty pads look almost new again.
