Default Small Clean on a Sat Afternoon

Ok so the car wasn't really dirty seeing as i gave it a quick clean last weekend and had only driven it once this week, but anyway i was bored and had some free time.

These are the products im going to be using:



Started off with a good snow foaming:





(the snow foam was thicker when i started but i only decided to start taking pictures when it had nearly all run off)

I used about an inch worth of PH neutral and just a splash of AG shampoo conditioner



Then a rinse off and going over with just AG shampoo conditioner and my dodo juice basics of bling microfibre sponge, using the two bucket method



Dried off using AG microfibre drying towel:



Left it alone for around 15 mins then went back out covered it with AG ultra deep shine, I love this stuff by far my favourite product i own:



Applied using a AG polish applicator pad slightly damp and removed with a microfibre towel









Was then only quickly waxed with AG HD wax as it was getting dark:



Finally only one coat of blacklight because its starting to get dark lol, havent probably tried this stuff yet if anyone has any tips on using it, applied with a foam applicator pad left for 15 mins then buffed then left to cure for 30 mins like it says on the bottle.

I'm not 100% on this but I think the blacklight should go on before wax, I often use blacklight on my car on its own

Blacklight is neither a glaze ,sealant or a wax ,as originally mentioned when launched it is a new type of LSP introduced to the market . Blacklight was originally developed for Chemical Guys Thailand ,where its main field was as an LSP for several car manufacturers.
Several people claim its an AIO ,a glaze etc and in fact its neither of these
Now in term of when to use ,it can be used before waxing ,after waxing ,instead of waxing as a stand alone LSP and the same goes for applying in place of a sealant ,its a very flexible product indeed .

Read this from chemical guys section on detailingworld.co.uk

Fair enough I still think I would wax after if at all as it is very good on its own
