I just recently purchased a 2000 NSX silverstone. (Yayyyyy!)

Just wanted to hear your guys thoughts on washing/cleaning/waxing etc...

I have heard good things about McGuire's and Mother's... any other thoughts... specific products, etc...
 
Congrats!
Describe your paint/finish condition.
If you want a general guideline on washing/drying check here
I would forget about the business about using a waterblade on your paint and the talk about chamois. Stick to a good quality sheepskin mit and good quality waffle weave microfiber towels for drying.

Wax procedure depends on what you want to acheive. Very general info can be found here.

I use a variety of carnubas and sealants on my cars.
If your car is a daily driver, I would go for a durable sealant such as the new Z2 pro by Zaino, FMJ by menzerna, etc.

If you car is a garage queen, try carnubas. Don't as durable, but can look great.

To me 90% is in the prep of the car (claying, washing, removing swirls, etc).

I really enjoy detailing, so I don't see it as hard work.

Have fun and HOW ABOUT SOME PICS? :wink:

PS Here are some good sites to check out:

Congrats!!! Nice color selection!!! I have used Zaino products on my Silverstone exclusively. It looks great. I think Zaino is really great on darker colors, but I liked the protection and durability it offers. There are other great products as well. Good luck and take care.
