Don't wax new paint for 30-60 days! It needs to cure.

After that, look into Klasse product. I wrote a post about it a long time ago on this site, so just do a search. It is much better than anything I've ever used.

Alright thanks dude i knew i wouldnt get to wax it for a while but ya.. Klasse? i never heard of that? is that some kind of new product.? i use zynimol wax for paint and iwas wondering of meguiars gold class is better than that or wat?

[94_AcCoRd_EX]

Its not new, but it will work better that most. There are other more expensive alternatives, but this is great for the money, much better than any Meguiars, etc.

I got this from a quick search on google:

Basically, you'll need the Klasse All In One, and the Klasse Sealant Glaze. You'll also need some microfiber towels. This will probably run you around $40 or so, but it lasts a long time.

i used polyglicoat (sp?) 3 years ago when i got the car and it shines like a mofo even after all this time and the cleveland winters. the best part about it was that it cost me only $1 from a dollar store lol, but i never had problems since. the only down side of it is that i gotta wash the and dry the car in shade otherwise i'll get hard water spots. as for the shine the cal looks like it has 16 clearcoats on it.

Hey guys i got my car back it looks soo sweet wit hthe bomex kit on it ill have pics up in a week or less.. but i got a Q in some places my paint looks like its dull in places like it would be shinny in half of the car and some places the paint is dull and not shinny.. does it need to be buffed again? they buffed it but i dont think they did a good job doin it..

[94_AcCoRd_EX]

If you have dull spots, take it back to them and talk to them about it. They should give you a perfect paint job when you get it back.

aight thanks dude.. its only on one aside too.. like on the pass. side its really bad but i wsnt sure if they buffed it good or not.. ill go up tommrrow and see wat they can do

[94_AcCoRd_EX]

I'm no paint expert, but it always helps just to calmly take it to the and tell them you're not 100% satisfied. If they give you crap about it, then you can take other measures.

how much did this cost? I'm looking into painting my del sol?

[C's 94 InTeGrA]

Well u probs wouldnt belive me if i even told u haha..

well for them to paint the whole car the facotry Acura red and to sand and primer and paint the kit and put it on for $1200 thats it..... which is one hell of a deal.. i have some pics if u want to see how good of a job they did.

If you want the best product with the most diverse and complete collection of cleaners you can NOWHERE but griot's garage... it's expensive but it lasts a long time and it's used on almost every collector car new or old. They also sell the tools that ferrari uses.

[nonovurbizniz]

oh and if you can find a place that sells 3M products they're supposed to be sick.

ok none of the guys said how nice that paint job looks Anyways I just wanted to say i love the paint and the kit its sick!
