if you give it a proper wash every week and take care of it and wax it every 4-6 weeks you'll never see swirls again

OH AND JAY they say to wait aproximately 60-90 days to let the paint cure before you put any lsp on it!
So if I seal twice a year, that would be doing the three coats of seal on like you had talked about and then waxing every month or so on top of that?

Then twice a year, strip it all off and start again? I may spend all my time at the meet picking your brain about this stuff.

You should have Ben detail your car. That way you will be off to a good start. then you can clay, seal, wax on your own.

I plan on it when I get the cash. Got a $200 speeding ticket that I need to pay now. I may have you take a look at my car at the meet Ben and see if you can give me a rough estimate and then bring it up a little later like May sometime.

That would be good. Leaving the car outside can cause a lot of damage. But once you get off to the right start, you should be fine. Have you ever clayed the car?

Not yet. I got the car in December and it has been pretty damn cold. I have never clayed a car at all before but plan on doing quite a bit more with this one to keep it perty.
