Another day, another question...
I'd like to improve the bodywork of my A2, but other than cleaning my car with a bucket of soapy water and a hose, I'm a complete novice. So, I'd like some advice about how to approach this, the order in which jobs should be done, the "dos and don'ts", etc.
I have borrowed a machine polisher from a friend, and some dry compound. I've also got a bottle of AutoGlym polish, which is less viscous but probably does the same thing. I've also got a large can of Collinte 476S. I don't have a clay bar, yet.
If I understand correctly, I need to do the following:
1. wash the car
2. clay bar
3. polish
4. wax
What's the two bucket method of washing a car? Are there any stages I've missed out? How do I apply the Collinite wax? This has to be the most open-ended thread I've ever posted. Talk to me, guys!
