ok so heres the deal. i just went out and splurged about 50 bucks at my local advance auto parts on cleanng supplies. i got turtle wax ice liquid polish, turtle wax ice liquid clay bar, ice car wash, some microfiber towels, and the ice quick detailer. the directions on these are a little confusing, so i was wonduring if anyone can help me by giving me a detailed step by step way to clean my car? does the car need to be dried before i clay it? how often can i wax my car? is it ok to put more than 1 coat of wax on? thanks for the help guys!

Microfiber towelS? Mind my asking what you need more than one for? I only use mine to dry the car, do you use them for anything else?

Well, I must be a weird one... I use about 10... and use them for everything, I have 2 set aside for rims, 1 huge one to dry the car, 2 little ones to dry the trunk, hood and door areas underneath, and buffing is a huge plus with the microfibers!!

thanks alot for the link judis..very helpful! going to wash her tommorow

Make sure you post some pics!!

i would take the liquid clay bar back ard get a real clay bar it does a much better job and i think i use about 15 to 20 microfibers when i detail a car

Ha, just one microfiber cloth?!??? I have 2 piles, clean and dirty. I have enough microfiber cloths and applicator pads to do a whole load of laundry.
