  Want to shine like the show cars? Start with a perfectly cleaned and prepared surface, then wax.
Preparing your vehicle for wax is an essential step in the detailing process. It requires more than washing; your paint must be perfectly clean and smooth. A quality wax will amplify the condition of your vehicle’s paint. If it is in less-than-perfect condition, the wax’s reflective properties will cause light to bounce off any imperfections. It will literally throw a spotlight on the problem areas. However, if your paint is smooth, shiny, and clean, the wax will further enhance its beauty.
Wax preparation used to simply involve washing the vehicle, but that was before the advent of clear coat finishes. Because clear coats are more sensitive to contamination and airborne pollution than single stage paint finishes were, advanced cleaning methods had to be created in order to keep newer vehicles clean. Polishes were modified into gentle prewax cleaners, like Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing Lotion, that refine the paint and remove old wax, or they became known as swirl removers. Clay was invented in 1987 to pull out embedded contaminants, a problem that plagues soft clear coat finishes. To date, it is the safest, most effective way to completely clean automotive paint.
