Ha ha, don't laugh, I have. That is before I was schooled by my hubby.Lisakay said:you could always use the "turtle wax" (rlaugh)
j/k..![]()
I used to use Turtle wax on my grandfathers old boat. It worked awsome in keeping the hull free of waterspots and salt water stains, and made it so easy to clean. NOTHING works better than Turtle wax on beadding water off paint.clownphish said:Ha ha, don't laugh, I have. That is before I was schooled by my hubby.![]()

I have to say that after using the Eagle nanowax, Im sold on it.
I think to get the best results you need products that work well together. To get the best results it also takes time and alittle effort on your part. By doing these to things you will get results that you can be proud of and that will make your car pop.
To get get the besst results you do need some tools.
You need good cloths like the microfiber cloths. They Rock! A high speed buffer/polisher is nice to have if you can afford one. (I am not talking about those $20 buffers like you see at walmart. I am talking about ones with speed control and you can put different aplicator pads for different compounds.)
You need to know how to use one or you can screw up your car pretty quick.
Also need some basic products like a wax cleaner, claybar is nice, polish and a good wax.
These basic things can make your car stand out.
The funny thing is I have detailed cars for years and I stil don't have everything I need. Someday though.
I used to have a friend that details for a living do my car to get out the fine scratches and stuff. Good luck everyone. Make those Mazdas shine.
Thanks! I feel so honored. Just want to add that I am not trying to tell anyone how to take car of there car or how to actually do it. Just trying to give advice from over 25 years of car detailing exp. I grew up on car lots since the age of 7. Both my uncles had lots and I used to help detail and pinstripe and stuff like that.ghostP5 said:Thanks for starting this thread man!! Alot of good info on here.

Would be good to do on cars that need a waxing.protejay5 said:anyone have any comparisons between the meguiars nx tech and the eagle one wax? perhaps they could do half the hood in one and the other half with the other and post pics......
Mud? Ha! All you need is a good rain and the time it takes for the damn thing to dry and you're there - car's dirty as a mofo! (pissed)protejay5 said:someone go drive a black mica through some mud........
