Guys wanna ask, just now I waxed my black car by hand and by the time I was done, the yellow foam appliacator pad turned black. What causes it to do that? I clayed my car before waxing it.

I was using meguiars nxt gen 2.0 wax.

as ur paint is black, its not easy to say what is the black stain on ur foam pad, what i can think of is,

either, 1. dirt on surface, if u havent wash or clay clean enuf,
2. clearcoat depleting, starting to reveal the basecoat(paint).

Sifus,

I just started washing my car seriously today with two bucket system..

I bought PG's polymer wash & wax and PG polymer sealant and microfibre cloth for RM35..

Use both products and found my car cleaner and shines... but somehow waterspots can't be removed.. feel like its not enough =/

Should I also buy the PG shine detailer and a clay? before I go into waxing?

More serious 'etched' watermarks u will need to polish, depending on the 'etched' on to your clearcoat/car paint, mild level ones u can do away with mild polish, more serious 1 you will need something more abrasive.

Once it is polished out, you need to seal it (wax, or sealant or any Last Step Protection solutions), so future watermarks will not be formed and makes your washing much easier.
