It gets me to my destination without any problems or hassle. ? I went 346.4 miles on 10.803 gallons of gas last tank -- in other words I got 32.1 MPG (60% city driving), and this car is 12 years old. ? It's fun to drive; 5 speed manual. ? Everything works, air conditioning, and all the normal functions. ? It just suits me.

kombolcha Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 man your car is sexy.. i wash my car every week and i want to polish it this week.. i got this NU Finish polish and an electric buffer. whats the best way to apply and how long does it usually take? is there some sort of technique i should know about? lik wax on wax off :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/321744-got-some-new-cleaning-products/#findComment-585937282 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisville Slugger Posted May 18, 2005 Author Share Posted May 18, 2005 I usually apply the wax and then go clean the windows/floor mats while the wax turns into a "haze." This usually takes about 10 minutes. Once it is all hazed over I'll buff it with a buff pad using a circular motion until shine! Damn an electric buffer would rock. The buffing process itself takes a good 30 to 45 minutes. You want to make sure you go over the same spots if you see swirls. Usually they'll come out the more you buff it. Oh and make sure your car is TOTALLY dry before you apply the wax. Did someone say common sense? Read the back of the bottle if you want more information on how to apply wax. Water and wax don't mix and you could leave little dark streaks.

Louisville Slugger Posted May 18, 2005 Author Share Posted May 18, 2005 <3 Prizm. Just filled up today. 355.7 miles on 11.024 gallons of fuel in the past 13 days = 32.3 MPG Or for you other folks. 572.4 km on 41.730 litres; (572.4 km) / (41.730 litres) x (100 km) / (X litres) X = 100 km x (41.730 litres) / (572.4 km) = 7.290 litres per 100 km Hmm this system seems more efficient.
