car detail
i love when cars are shinier and smoother than new. any recomendations on where to go and what to get done? price range? i want to get rid of the swirls in my paint and it to blind people with pure shine. or product recomendations, i know ziano is pretty popular, anything else?
im looking for smooth and shiney, what to get done, where to get it done, and how much to pay or not pay. thanks!

Try the wash and wax forum. I suggest you pick up a Porter Cable

wash, i use meguires.
clay, i use clay magic. you can get it at pepboys. i prefer it over some of the other clays i have used.
i wash again because when iam claying i dont bother wiping off the spray lube.
polish, meguires #80 is relly good. it take out swirls and give the paint a deep shine.
wax, meguires #26. good protection and works well with #80.
the polish and was can be applied by hand or with a porter cable. DO NOT use a makita!
a makita is a orbital buffer and is way to agressive to be used on a car that is not extreamly abused. #83 will be more than sufficent even if you have a ton of swirls. a porter cable is random orbiting buffer and total safe.
if u want more info just pm and i can help you out.
