when to do a sealprotectant on the paint?

Post by Bjornbuse » Wed Apr 15, 2015 3:13 pm

Hi guys!

Im in for delivery, my second RS6, c7! :biggrin3: - "Probably the best car in the world"
I have a question to you out there, how have you done, with the paint job/waxing.
How good of waxing does the car have from factory? How early should one leave the car to a detailer (not sure about the correct word here) to do some kind of a sealant/protective wax. Immediately? Or wait? Some say that the paint is not "dry"/"hardened" until couple of weeks/months and to do wax on the paint might be to ruin the beatiful job they have done.

Also id be greatful for tips on the best carschampoo available, i truly love to do some washing myself, i found the maguiars wash and wax to smell lovely and seems to be shining quite nice afterwards. But as i said, what is the best product out there?

A third question. With my last one, i pushed the pedal to the metal after 5 minutes of drivning, what i heard the engine is supposed to be ready for that kind of action. Have you guys done "engine-run ins?

Ill try to be back on friday with some early photos! :jump: :kissmyrings:

Thankful for tips.

Take it to your trusted detailer straight after youve collected your car.

As long as hes trusted and you know them its the only way to go,

Check detailing world for some help

Fusso 99 is the best stuff ive ever used, priced around £20 it also lasts a year and its very easy to apply.
