Default One Last Christmas Special!!!

The free shipping promotion just ended. I'm going to have one last special that will last until December 15th at midnight.

For orders over $30 you will get a free Waterless Wash W/Carnauba and 3 Plush Microfiber Towels. Now that has to be at least $30 of products or more, not with shipping included. This is a $15.95 Value!!

Let me know if you have any product questions. You can order through the website www.obsessivedetail.com or call me over the phone at 217-304-7294 to place an order.

Alright, probably about time I get in on one of these then, can never get enough microfibers.

What sort of wax/sealant would you recommend for a light green colored car? I'm looking for something that has good protection against dirt and tree sap, bird droppings etc since it is a daily driver- see the link below for a (large) picture.

Hypershine sealant or Opti-Seal. I think those would look good on that color.

First I would use my Light Polish or Optimum Polish to clean the paint, correct light swirls and scratches, plus bring out more shine and reflection. Then I would top with eithe my Hyper Shine or Optimum Opti Seal Sealant as Cooter mentioned.

They Hyper Shine goes on and off more like a wax and the Opti Seal is a walk on and walk away product, you don't have to buff off, it just dissappears.

Let me know if you have anymore questions.

I think the Hyper Shine would really bring that color out really nice. The opti-seal is pretty amazing too. I used the hyper shine on my black mustang once, and it really glowed. It looked good enough like it was without needing to be topped.

Here's a pic of my car with the hypershine sealant. Its behind the white Altima. The Altima was poli-sealed and topped with Nattys Red btw =)

Alright looking now I see the optimum products look to be used with a buffer, I don't have one that I'm comfortable using on the car, so it looks like the light polish and hyper shine will be the way I need to go.

The Optimum Polish actually works really well by hand or with a buffer, it has light abrassives and is a good finishing polish.

I think you will be very happy with the Light Polish by hand topped with the Hyper Shine. With the Light Polish I recommend doing small sections at a time. With the Polish you don't have to use that much at all, a little bit will go a long way, just basically work it in until it almost dissappears and then take off. Then apply the Hyper Shine, with this a little bit will go a long way too. You can do a panel and let it haze up or do the whole vehicle and then buff off, either way will work fine. I do recommend putting a second coat after 15 minutes to ensure the best coverage and durability.
