Use Drill to Wax a Car?

Okay. And this is going to sound kinda OCD but won't the cord drag on the paint from the PC and is it not really a big deal?

Will say some of Meguairs pro line is the ****s :) well there OTC stuff well you get what you pay for I prefer my wax to last awhile in case weather or I'm to busy to get to it myself.

i do my car once a year, end of summer, compound and then wax. if washed weekly it looks good for the year.

my brother on the other hand will use it every month. and it shows. he used hi end products too. only on his Yukon that is, nothing else gets it so often, that truck is his baby lol
 
I use to do it weekly but just don't have the time anymore it was flawless I was very OCD about my paint it looked way different then other sports red GP. Car was sitting for a year or so I washed it may be 2x that year during that time and when I mean washed it was a simple spray down with hose lol and it still shined like no other. I got tired of spending all this money looking for better waxes OTC and invested in some quality ****. I use natty wax love it and Collonite.
 


Burgundybullet you got a lot of learning to do lol check that YouTube subscriber he will probably answer all your questions in his multiple videos.
 
Waxing weekly is completely unnecessary. Depending on the 'lifespan' of the wax, once a month is plenty. I do mine every 2 or 3 months on my GP and a little more often on my toy.
 
once a year, and this how it beads up when it rains, all year, clean or dirty.

i barely wax mine because the body is crap. once i paint it ill start taking care of the body... but until then, wash it and thats it
 


Once it warms up ill be doing a full correction. Had a tree fall down and a lot of the sticks,leaves etc hit the car.
 
Before I got the 7424 I used a cordless and a Mothers power-ball. It seemed to work just OK. The Porter Cable with new backing plate and pads works lots lots better but costs more. Pay to play
 
It's so hard to not watch that guys videos and not laugh. He made some comment about how Charles Barkleys golf swing technique was bad and I had no idea what he was talking about so I spent the next ten minutes on you tube watching that. haha. But I think I will end up getting one of these once money starts coming back in again.
 


So if I need to sand lets say a license plate filler so I can paint it type deal. And a trunk. Maybe even roof rails if the guy ever sends them to me...
 
You could use it for those but I do those things like by hand..I don't want my machine to do everything for me plus a 5 inch pad is sort of big for everything besides the trunk.
