I`ve always used mer car shampoo,it helps repel the rain,i find it much better than the auto glym car shampoo,hopefully if it stays dry i`ll seal the polish with auto glym gold sealant.

Hi, correct me if I wrong but I thought we were not supposed to polish a new car until 12 weeks have passed or something? This is to ensure no damage is done to the lacquer(sp?)?

news to me,says on the bottle can be used on new paint,i just applied it and buffed it off.I doubt that is true as it would`nt be much cop if the paint was so easily damaged,what about bird sh!t and washing the car they would be more harmfull.And what about the protection the vw dealers offer how would they do that ?
