    Any car detailers in here? What is the best polish to apply by hand on a white vehicle? Paint is in new condition, the car is less than a year old. I have looked into Meguiars Ultimate Polish but apparently that is best for darker paints.

      My plan is to use a ceramic coating. Everywhere says to clay bar then polish it first but there aren't any visible scratches. Apparently you need a polish after using a clay bar as well. I will need to iron spray it but I'm half tempted to give it another thorough wash and dry after the iron spray then apply the ceramic. I may stop into lordco tomorrow to get some advice. If it is a necessary step prior to ceramic coating it then I will just buy the finest/least aggressive polish I can find.

      Oh and I should have been more clear-a DA polisher to apply a polish product to your car.  Meguiars ultimate would likely add some clarity despite what youve heard.  I recently picked up Chemical Guys V36 & V38 and they were good products.

      @I.Am.Ironman I think the idea is to get as much clarity as possible/remove any surface levelimperfections before applying the ceramic coat, since the coating essentially seals in whatever condition your paint is at that time.   

       

      Iron spray, isopropyl alcohol prep are definitely good ideas!  Goodluck! Share your before and afters too
