New paint, what is the care it need?

[ztinaldoz]

I painted my car 20th february.. what is the best care i can give my paint now, so it will stay shiny and new-looking?

i'd start by adopting proper washing and drying techniques to avoid adding swirls to the paint, because it's fine scratches that are what dull the paint and don't allow light to reflect properly.

for washing, you can use the 2 bucket method. one bucket with a soap/water solution and the other with water.

for drying, use a microfiber towel and the ''press and lift'' method.

since your car was just painted, i would claybar the entire car because you know it has some fine overspray on it somewhere. then i'd use a paint cleaner, followed by a sealer and glaze, and then a wax.

i'd wax it every 2-3 months after that to keep the paint protected.

i would clay once a year and do the 3 step with it. later.
