Weekend detail maintenance. - 06-05-2008, 02:57 PM

Hello everyone,

I just want to share with you that I plan to maintain my car this weekend. This is what I will be doing and if there are any compatibility issues, let me know

1.) Wash car twice w/ two bucket method
2.) Clay the whole car

3.) Apply Klasse AIO
4.) Apply Meguiars #7 Glaze
5.) Apply Meguiars NXT 2.0

Wait 24hrs for NXT to cure and bond.

6.) Apply Meguiars #26 Carnuba
7.) Apply Collinite #845 Carnuba

What do you guys think of this? This should be good enough until I fully detail my car later on this summer, probably late July or early August. Thanks!!

That seems to be a lot of layers. What are you looking to get by topping a sealant with two different waxes?

I was thinking the same thing...if its for durability the sealant will accomplish that...the paste wax will bring the wet and depth look

What no compounds? At the very least you shouldn't need two waxes at the end.

When I do my full car detail in the end of July I will use the compounds for sure. Thanks for the lookout.

Just do KAIO and NXT 2 twice or 26 twice or 845 twice . That should be more then enough.

Way overkill to no avail in my opinion.

I would think you could stop at the NXT.
