It seems like there are some people on here who take their detailing pretty seriously, so why not have a place to discuss. I know that there are also people who do absolutely nothing and don't care at all what their car looks like (my father, for example, whose black Acura is 50% covered in pine sap).
To get things started, my general approach has been:
-Buy the Griots DA and a bunch of pads and then never take it out of the box
-Consider washing the car, but then decide that I really want to "do it right" and do the full decontamination, fill in paint chips, correction, sealant etc and somehow I never can seem to find time for that
-When things get really ugly, do a quick wash, wax with Collinite 845 to disguise the hard water staining that seems to be ever prevalent on my cars, and call it good
-Having clean wheels is like an 80% improvement in appearance without doing anything to the rest of the car
-I hate having a black car
In all seriousness, I would like to to the full paint correction and ceramic coat...one of these days.
What is everyone else doing?
