I just wanted to post a few pics of what you can accomplish with Mother's products. this was all done by hand with no help from any powertools (buffers or D.As). I did all of this last Saturday and Took 1st place in my division in a show on Sunday. don't mind the dust ina couple of them

I really think most other product lines are inferior to Mother's

Looks great. Did you use Mother's California Gold Claybar kit, because if you are you are getting better results than me.

Mothers is the best...thats so shiny that I cant tell what color yours is......looks like a yellow stang.

what kind of car is it?

GTO, right?

that is by far the shineiest (?) black car ever, the yellow stang is beside his car. i think i also saw yellow and blue flames on his car?

So shiny it hurts!

I need to get me some of that stuff.

after a complete wash and strip of old products (use Dawn to strip the old wax), I used Mother's clay to clean the surface then washed again. from there I used Mother's Cleaner PASTE Wax, followed by Mother's Liquid Glaze and finished off with Mother's California Gold PASTE.

you can really only get the depth from a good Carnuba paste. liquid will give you a nice shine but no durability or depth compared to the paste

Sounds great, I'll have to try that next weekend. Just another thing I was wondering how often you need to replace the claybar.

where do you get mothers wax?? ive looked all over around here in stores. all i can find are wheel polishes and a cleaner wax from mothers.

it lasts me a long time (read, at least a season). I also don't use it with wax on the car. I always strip off the wax first to make sure I get all the contaminants off the car so I have the smoothest base to work with. if you drop it though, throw it away immediately.

I'm surprised that they don't carry the regular waxes if they carry the other stuff. all the places near me carry it

That really works well. On Saturday I used dish soap to take off the wax and contaminants, then claybarred. I got alot of the fine scratches that have been bugging me out. After that I used Nu Finish Scratch Doctor in some places, and used the Nu Finish glaze wax polish thing all over.

still havent found any actual wax, anywhere...

i guess ill stick with meguires. i have no problems with it.

350, do u use nxt?

nope, when i do it, ill do the whole 3 step process. first step once, second step twice, and the third step.. well that varies. last time i did it 4 times.. over kill im sure, but im checkin it all out.

I need to get me some mothers love. That sh*t really shines.
