Just got done cleaning my car...

Tim620X · 09-03-2007, 01:46 PM

Well, today was the first time I've waxed my car... I've had it for a little over 3 weeks now. I used the Turtle Wax Ice car wash which I have been using since I got the car and after a lot of research and help from people on here, I went with the Meguiar's High Tech NXT wax. I have to admit it, all of the great reviews for this wax are true! I love this wax, it's so easy to put on and comes off easily too. God it makes the NHBP looks good. I had the perfect day to do it too... sun was out while I washed my car and I dryed it off right away so no water spots this time, and when it came time to wax it the sun went away. Anyways... here's some pics.

(^^Love this pic.! Look at how it shines and the reflection of the clouds^^)

Again, thanks for the ppl who helped me decide on this wax. Wasn't expensive either... only like $6.?? @ Wal-Mart. Deff. worth trying out.

Way2Short · 09-03-2007, 02:15 PM

wow, thats shiny.

Tim620X · 09-03-2007, 02:24 PM

I'm in the Syracuse area...

Yeah, took about 3 hours to vaccum, clean the windows, wash, clean the rims, and then wax it... but it was well worth it! I can't stop starring at it lol, I don't want to get it dirty.

Lol, you can wax your car as long as it doesn't not just come out of paint shop.

Your car was produced probably 1 year ago, so your paint should be 1 year old already. It is safe to wax.....

to OP: your car made my wet...

I told you

Car looks beautiful man, don't think you could ask for a deeper shine for the price you paid to get it.
