  1. Hey there Steve: Thanks for replying and thanks for clearing that up for me. The guy at the detail supply shop didn’t explain it that way at all…. In fact he didn’t explain the glaze process at all. <_< I know nothing last forever. I’ll just have to make more time to keep my baby as looking as nice as she does now. My “03” GS-300 is a year and half old and only 10500 miles on it, the paint is in nearly perfect condition. Now I feel pretty confident that I’ll be able to do this without messing it up. Thanks again, keep up the good work
  2. Hi my name I Christopher, an Electrician here on Long Island. I'm sort of a newbie here and really interested in keeping my Black 2003 GS-300 shinny and new looking for as long as I can. I’ve read your posting on the “WHAT SHOULD I DO FIRST” and have taken a few notes too. As I write this I am expecting my new PC 7424 any day now. I have been told by some of my neighbors and customers that I lean toward the meticulous side a bit too much. This must be why I’m so frigg’n nervous of screw’n this up. If you don’t mind me asking a few questions as I go along that would be great. I think I need a little handholding. I have been hand washing my car with a micro fiber wash-mitt and drying it with micro fiber towels sometimes even with my leaf blower. (I like the tip about wrapping the side view mirrors w/ plastic) The wax I’ve been using is a cream wax that I’ve been applying by hand with a small micro fiber towel and removing it with a clean small micro fiber towel. After the washing and waxing to achieve that really shinny look I’ve sprayed something called Mist but it just doesn’t last like it does with whatever the professionals put on it. Isn’t that the Glaze? Is that what goes on last? I didn’t see that on the “WHAT SHOULD I DO FIRST”. I'm looking for a great shine during the summer months when I have time and the space (outdoors) to maintain the car and the a good protestant shield for the winter months, my garage isn’t big enough to work in comfortably or safely (for the car) and it isn’t heated either. I’m willing to post this on the website but I thought it might be a bit long winded. I just wanted you to know about my situation and me. I can shorten this for posting purposes. I hope you can find time from busy schedule to help me out with my concerns; you seem like a compassionate person and someone else who like to as close to perfect job as possible. Thanks in advance, Christopher Sparks
