I met a cool guy today when I was getting some gas in my stang.
The guy said that I have a nice, new car, and I replied, "thanks man!, it's a 2005. It would look a whole lot better without all these swirls."
He replied, "you know what, your not waxing, dusting, and detailing correctly. You have to always use a Soft towel (a big one)(microfibers are too abrasive) and have to ALWAYS move the towel in a strait line, in the same direction ALWAYS.
He later gave me a card which says he has a car detailing business.
He recommends meguiars waxes and polishes as well.

yeahhhh....microfiber is too abrasive? its pretty soft, and its benefits of no lint are pretty key, did he mention something to use in its stead?

Miscellaneous Notes:- We do not recommend using a chamois, since they can trap dirt and cause scratches. They also have a tendency to "pull" the wax off.
- If possible, do not wash a car in bright sunlight. Soap suds can dry, which will leave a film. "Water spotting" also can occur when drops of water act like miniature magnifying glasses in bright sunlight. If a shaded area is not available, try washing in the late afternoon or early morning hours when the sun is not strong.

blueherd02Gt-
i dont understand what your posts are supposed to say: the guy 22kart met said that microfiber was too abrasive, he didnt mention chamois, and microfiber cloths are much softer than chamois, so i dont understand why you posted that quote.

you want to be impressed, buy ZAINO...i know its a lot, but in the long run it will save you money and it protects much better than waxes.

Black is deffineatly the best color and if u keep chamois wet and spray them off regularly while cleaning they do work good i used to detail cars to and thats what i used u gotta just clean a little and spray it off wring and repeat
