Questions - Just waxed and buffed
Hellow Fellow 6Speeders,
I need help
maintaining blemishes / swirl marks on my Black C4S- In the sunlight I still see blemish marks after a detail – almost like streaks you would see in glass. How do I fix/ avoid these?
- Washing microfiber towels- is it ok to use laundry soap? Or should I wash by hand with car wash soap?
- Is it safe to wipe off dust with just detail spray and a microfiber towel?
- Is it better to dry with a sheepskin shammy or microfiber towel?
- Are there better quality microfiber towels than others?

- In the sunlight I still see blemish marks after a detail – almost like streaks you would see in glass. How do I fix/ avoid these? This is probably due to humidity in the air or products counteracting with one another. A proper wash should remedy this problem.
- Washing microfiber towels- is it ok to use laundry soap? Or should I wash by hand with car wash soap? Wash the microfibers in warm water using only detergents that don't contain bleach or fabric softners. Use a liquid detergent as the powder ones will not always dissolve and may leave residue in the towel. There are microfiber detergents that work excellent as well.
- Is it safe to wipe off dust with just detail spray and a microfiber towel? I am not a fan of this at all. No matter what anyone has said to me, I have yet to see a finish that didn't have marring and light scratches due to dry-wiping with a detail spray. You are merely moving the microscopic rocks around. Detail sprays were designed to wipe down clean finishes that had fingerprints, light dust from sitting in the garage, water spots after washing, etc...
- Is it better to dry with a sheepskin shammy or microfiber towel? Use a waffle weave microfiber drying cloth. Advantage over chamois is better technology, clean towel since you wash after every application, and it won't strip the wax like a natural chamois.
- Are there better quality microfiber towels than others? All mircofibers aren't created equal. The ones that are excellent and you're not paying for hype will be around the $4-7 range per towel.
