We had great weather yesturday here in Morrisiville so I decided to wax my old Acura TL
I started at 5 to pick up some needed supplies from Wally-World ( Wal-Mart) and had finished washing the car by 6:30 Waxing for me is a three-step process, the first is the clay bar, it feels like playdough but its important for removing any ground in tar, old wax, sap and road salts. The second is a coat of mequiars cleaner/polish and then two coats of next tech paste wax. Finally a hand buff. I finished at 10:30 Am BTW Pearl White is a very hard color to maintain. So I would be cautious about buying one, especially a used one in that color. Next week I get to work on the wife's hybrid. Fortunately for me her car is a bit smaller with a neutral sandy color and will be a breeze to wax. |

I was my car for several reasons but one is financial, on average a really clean car with good paintwork and trim can fetch five hundred to a thousand dollars more from a buyer than one that is spotty, dirty etc even if both are in the same mechanical shape. But to each his own my friend
