The Finer Details in Car Detailing - part 4
Sealant or Glaze Application
You will need:
? 2 or 3 microfiber towels
? 2 applicator pads
? a sealer or glaze product
? (optional) orbital buffer.
1) Using a cotton terry applicator, apply the sealer/glaze evenly onto the vehicle surface. Use circular motions. Start with a 2 x 2 section.
2) Once your sealer/glaze has dried to a haze, buff off with a microfiber towel or a clean terry towel.
Follow this procedure until you have applied the sealer/glaze on the entire vehicle surface. An orbital buffer works well to speed up the job.
You can now wax the vehicle.
Wax is available in three forms:
Liquid
Paste
Spray
Liquid wax smoothes on easily, although the durability is not as good as with the paste products.
Carnauba is a natural material taken from the leaves of Brazilian palm trees. A wax with a high Carnauba content works well.
Using Carnauba Wax:
You will need:
? 2 or 3 microfiber towels
? 2 applicator pads
? Carnauba wax
? (optional) orbital buffer
1) With a round terry wax pad, apply even coat of wax on the vehicle surface. Work in circular motions. Begin with a 2 x 2 section.
Dont be heavy with your wax application because you will end up having to remove an excess amount of wax residue.
2) Using a microfiber towel or a clean cotton terry towel, remove all residue. An orbital buffer will work well, too.
Remember to remove all wax residue from the various creases and edges.
Use a soft bristled toothbrush to remove wax residue from all fixed items such as the radio antennas.
Use special care, as being too aggressive will result in scratches.
Using a spray bottle, spot spray grease or heavy traffic areas for best results. To make your time more efficient, use the various styles of tools available. Include an appropriate expiration date of no less than 30 days and no more than 45 days. Detail precisely how much money you need to accomplish the goals of your car detailing business. Next, dry the battery off using the air hose. Just how sure are you of your decision to start a car detailing business? |
