Hey guys I thought I would start a thread because I wanted to know some of you guys secrets to making your car very shiny. In other words, what cleaning products do you use (i.e. car wash, wax, clay bar, etc). I wasn't sure where to put this so I put it in general discussion. Thanks guys and please do share your secrets unless you just really do not want to.

there is ALOT of photo noise in the second picture because i didnt edit it, but pretty much 7 hours about will make an entire car like a mirror if you somewhat know what ur doin


edit: newer cars also have a rediculously advanced clear coat compared to our cars, so just hosing them off will give the same effect as spending alot of time on old paint, however, when you add carnauba wax to the mix on a new car, it gives the paint alot of depth, giving it that show car 3D look
