    Ok Now that the Holidays are just about over I have decided it was time to start thinking about the products I want for this spring. Here is a list of stuff I was thinking about getting and I just want to know if there is anything else I should consider for the paint on my car. Thanks.

    1) This porter cable package http://www.detailersdomain.com/Porter-Cable-7424XP-Heavy-Swirl-Remover-Bundle_p_257.html

    2) Adams clay bay with detail spray

    3) Lusso auto bathe

    4) Aquartz Iron Cut

    5) Some type of paste wax thinking Lusso Oro or I might go big with Swissvax or chemical guys celeste

    Phil do you think it would be a good idea to add megs d300 to the mix?

    If you don't mind straying from buying only at DD, you could try the AutoGlym HD wax.

    i would recommend optimum soap in addition to the lusso. the lusso is really nice, but its only an 8 ounce bottle for 10 bucks. for around 12 dollars you can get 32 oz of optimum soap. its great stuff.

    do you have a picture of the car you are working on?

    it won't hurt but you would need to add the microfiber cutting pads.

    You only have one life right? why don't you treat yourself one time? because like most guy once you start thinking about expensive wax but end up never doing it .. one day you will just be sick of ALWAYS thinking about THAT particular jar you die to try.. so treat yourself.. worse.. you can always sell it back or... seek for some sample. You don,t have to pay 500-1000$ to try these wax. there's always people willing to sample ( you know I do) but let say.. you die to try zymol.. I can guarentee you, you will find sample pot on the web just search for them.

    That's a good point. How much will one ounce cover?

    Depends on the wax, but usually, you can do between 4-6 sedan with an onze.. Some say they can do 8 sedan with an onze, I think it's streched a bit too much but still.. you should be able to do at least 4 applications for sure.
