This is my soon to be first detail probably a while off pending cash and weather but anyways here it goes



(Outside)



1. Wash Meg GC or NXT

2 Meg APC on wheels and rims cut 2:1

3 Clay

4 Polish Poorboys SSR1 with LC light cut

5 Ex or Exp with LC finishing pad (not sure what one to use or the difference and should 6 I do 2 coats cure time?)

7 2 coats of NXT

8 Back to black (should I go over this with a all season dressing?)

9 Meg endurance tire gel

10 Stoners on glass

11 Plastx on lights by hand



(Inside)



12 Vacuum

13 Wipe down with damp mf dash ( should I use APC on this stuff?)

14 Then meg Natural Shine on everything

15 Glass

16 Meg. APC on carpets and seats ( how should I dilute this 4:1)



Should I use wolite on the mats or apc? And if wolite how should I dilute that I don’t want a bad smell in there. I used some stuff on accident and it smelled like puke need to get that out!





Thanks for all the help guys feedback would be very nice and helpful sorry to ask so much of you all. I’m a pain I just want to learn as much as I can and you all are very nice! I got hooked as soon as I found this place and the guide one it! Detailing is my favorite thing to do. Note: The number will make it easer to answer.



Thanks to you all been a big help!
 
Looks pretty good for the most part.. couple of suggestions - topping ex/exp with nxt is a waste since NXT has cleaners that would strip the ex. Either way, topping one sealant with another is sort of redundant - most sealant topping is done either with another coat of the same sealant or with a carnauba.



I prefer Woolite over APC on carpets. Woolite 10:1 works great in most cases - 6:1 can be used if the stain is particularly bad.
 
I would top the EX/EX-P with Nattys/ Nattys blue or ClearKote carnuba wax. I've had good luck with both. The Natty's is a paste and the ClearkOte is a liquid wax.



What color is your car?
 
Looks good but Megs APC 4:1 will do awesome wheels and tires. You only need 10:1 for carpets. 4:1 is hard to rinse out. Upside to, you're saving more money!



Once clean, you can use Woolite for maintenance. Woolite is strong enough to clean just about anything though. Mix 10:1. You can use it on leather as well.



As for NXT wax, use it first. It has cleaners and will remove some LSPs is placed over them.
 
For silver the regular Nattys will probably works best. It is suppose to bring out the metallic more. It can be used with a pc but I think most people put it on by hand.
