    I was told that the new cars don't have a polish wax on them and to get the dealer to do it. Is that true? Or is it just a upsell? Sent from my iPhone using AutoGuide.com App

    So the weather finally cleared up this afternoon in SE Michigan so I thought it would be a good time to wash/wax before it gets cold. Took my time and did a pretty good job. Five hours later, it's raining cats and dogs. Oh well, at least the wax job will be good for another couple if months...

    So I went out today to get my back waxed (don't judge me lol) and I guess the lady must have dropped some on my shorts and I didn't notice. Long story short I have some on my seat now and I have no idea how to get it off. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

    So I spent about $60 on some cleaning products the day after I bought my Si. I wanted to clay bar the car, but after struggling trying to wash it and the soap not staying on the car lol, I knew the clay bar could wait till I racked up some miles. Products Used: Meguiar's Ultimate...

    Me and the wife just finished waxing the new car. We started with washing with Mother's California Gold. Then the clay bar. The clay bar was slick right from the start....there probably wasn't much contamination since it's a new car. Then the 3 step polish, sealer, wax. After that a detailing...
