washed twice to be sure it was clean. No clay bar since the car owner doesnt trust it. Waxed with Meguiar's cleaner wax two coatsand buffer.

Don't understand anyone not trusting claybar, nothing to be afraid of!
Nice looking car! well done

 

Car looks great. [sm=smiley20.gif]

You realize the second coat of cleaner wax took the first coat off?
Try Meguiars Step 3, or a pure carnauba wax for your second coat.

 

yes i know the second coat took off the first, but the paint had a lot of crap on it so i thought a second try would take more off.

And she dont trust the claybar well i dunno shes old and its a lexus.

Soill rember about the Meguiars Step 3 when im doing my car.

 

I'm not sure the cleaner wax is designed to be used as a final wax coat, I thought it's just a cleaner to take off contaminants and then have a carnauba wax applied as the final coat. I imagine it will work fine for a little while, but I don't see it being very durable or protective.

Anyway, looks sharp, good job. Maybe next time, just don't tell her about using the claybar

 

I wish they didn't call it 'cleaner wax' for this reason. Some people mistake it for being a final wax.

 

Perhaps you need to explain to her that a clay bar is not made from organic, abrasive clay like earthenware or stoneware.
I wish they would have named them plasti-bar or poly-bar. Anything but that which suggests some kind of mud clay.
More people would be less concerned about it and would give it a try and see what it can really do.
