Pride In Your Ride
#61
I'm OCD when it comes to cleaning my cars. My wife hates when i don't feel like washing her car, because i sit back and criticize her method. Takes me about 3-4 hours to fully wash and wax my car. Griots products are top notch too.
I really do love cleaning up a dirty car. Something very satisfying perfecting something to your level of expectation. If detailing cars paid as well as my current job, I'd quit and do that. I relate it similarly to people who take the time to route wires and hoses in an engine bay in a clean manner; yes you can cut the corner and not detail your car, or not hide those wires in nicely wrapped looms, but people respect a clean buff just as much as a tidy engine bay. Attention to detail.

Personally I'd be terrified to touch my car with a buffer. We have one, but considering a fresh microfiber turns red when I wax my car...I'd rather just stick to hand waxing every month or two and plain wash it every couple few weeks. A paint job will come in a couple years and I'll see what I can do with a buffer.

I like to polish then apply a couple layers klasse high gloss sealant. I find that it is more durable and lasts longer than wax. Then when I wash the car I use a quick detail wax over the sealant. When it comes time to polish again just polish down to the sealant and then apply another couple layers of sealant. I also have a grit guard in the bottom of my car wash bucket to separate dirt and sand out of the soapy water.
