Best products to use on exterior?

Hey everyone,

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend some products to use on the exterior of my car to get it looking back to show room condition because the winter has got it feeling kinda dull. Please recommend some products that are of high quality and won't produce swirls or damage the paint. I'm looking for everything from cleaning out scratches, to accentuating color, to restoring to show room condition etc.

you must remove all swirls before you talk about preventing them.....

Sounds like you need a lot! If you have a lot of scratches, you may need a paint correction before you even think about everything else. I would start by reading some of the information on this forum. Some really nice articles on how to properly wash/dry the car, that is the first start. Detailed Image is a sponsor on this forum and George is one hell of a guy, he will point you in the right direction for sure. I am a big fan of chemical guys (CG) products. They have everything you would need to get started. Not that any other products aren't good, just always been a fan. Do some research first, this will def help. Then PM george and you will be on your way
