Default A sped-up Video of me Waxing an S2000!


Thanks for Watching! Please tell me what you think of this.

One person mentioned steps & products used:

- Meguiars Gold Class Paste Wax
- Basic microfiber towels
- Microfiber application pad
- REALLY soft toothbrush for the sidestripes & cracks/crevices
- (In case anyone cares, it was filmed with a Canon Vixia HF-20 camcorder)

As far as the steps go, I basically washed (Meg. GC Car Wash) & dried the car (MF towels), applied wax, & took it off.

As I pointed out in your gallery post.. understand every time you use a toothbrush... no matter HOW soft you think it is.. you WILL mar(scratch) the paint..

Haha, my friend actually tried making fun of that aspect of the video (the plates).

The song is "Jabon" by Jojo Mayer & Nerve, from the Prohibited Beats album. None of the drum work is programmed -- the guy plays it all himself.

Thanks for letting me know (twice) I get what you mean though. I was basically doing that because I didn't know what else to use to get into crevices & stuff -- Someone suggested a MF towel, so I'll try that.

What do you use, mainly for (if your car has them) the sidestripes, as well as emblems?
