OK...now that "pickle" is running well, I wanna turn my attention to her looks (even though she looks pretty damn good right now). I'm a carnuba kinda guy, and use Griots products. I believe in claying too. My question is, since the car is new to me, should I start from scratch by stripping whatever is on there now? I;ve done this before by washing with Dawn, but wondered if I should use a chemical wax stripper...the stuff body shops use to prep a car. Thanks in advance for your wisdom and opinions.

I've been told that washing with dishwashing detergent gets all the wax off. Maybe true, maybe not. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

FWIW this is the best wax combo i've tried, I only apply by hand though, so if you have an orbital there may be superior products out there.
I do my truck with this once a year and the water beads up right until it's time to wax again. http://www.autogeek.net/klassekit.html |
