white car care., nice and clean, pictures uploaded Options

i was wondering how most of you guys with white cars clean them and keep them looking good?

when i bought the car it had some grease marks, cant get them off. i washed and used turtle wax but not too much luck. little better but not gone.

also i tried taking the factory stripes. they done come off, and when they do they leave marks.







should i try clay and polish?
ive NEVER used either so any tips? this is the plan i have in mind:

wash
usingthis kit pretty much

well i used the meguir's paint restoration kit.


started with this:








started 1st with washing with my normal usual shampoo/wax
then used as followed (in order)


1.Meguiar's gold class shampoo.
cleaned it nice but still lots of imperfections.
then dried with the microfiber towels provided in the kit.








2. tried clay bar but the one provided in the kit was really tiny and it wasnt helping the issues MY car had. so i didnt bother much and went to the "Ulitmate compound"
dried that. had some issues where i didnt tape up the rubber seals and i was spreading the blackness onto my paint. YOU HAVE TO BE REALLY CAREFUL IN THIS AREA

3. then just applied the liquid wax provided and dried that. not really a fan of the wax, it was really easy to come off and didnt leave the slippery feeling like the old turtle one i used. maybe its just me.



ending like this:

did a mini noob photoshoot. posted pictured in my project thread.

overall REALLY satisfied.
