"Hi my name's Tim Duke with Premiere Detailing and I'm going to show you how to buff a newly painted car. The only difference with a newly painted car and an older car, if there is any difference, once paint is on there, paint is still there, it's just the amount of environmental fallout and things it has on it. With a newly painted car you're not going to want to press as hard because it's not going to have as much contaminants in it. Just be real light with it so you don't scratch it and you just kind of work with the airflow and start with front to the back. Just kind of work from the front to the back, getting all in between all the spots here, you want to make sure every inch gets waxed. Make sure you get in the little fender flares, all sorts of little hidden spots. Make sure you come up along the top, you don't want to leave the top unwaxed. And just make sure you go along kind of with the airflow from front to back. Make sure you're filling in all the cracks in between here, in between the door handles, you can also get a little bit of wax on a towel and kind of get in between your underneath the door handles themselves so get those all taken care of. But that's how you wax a car."
