Bodywork TLC - what are others doing?
Discussion
Would be interested if anyone has detail of, or has links to, original list prices on various base 993’s derivatives and cost of extras per option codes.
I have my new 993 – C2S ocean - in the garage, and now 2 weeks into relationship.
Early days, but, still very much in love - so keen to please her. One aspect I have not sorted as yet is what I will commit to re clean/polish/detailing routine. I appreciate this is yet another of those ‘which religion is best’ 993 questions but will ask anyway!
I am happy to commit to reasonable hours and expense to her ongoing beauty treatment but basically she is for driving and I do not wish to spend every weekend caressing and spending full maintenance budget on obscure Amazonian wax treatment so I need a compromise between great look and relatively ease of maintenance and expense. So given that profile would be grateful for any views/advice of full bodywork maintenance routine i.e. what products and what application schedule/routine others use and are happy with.

They're all reasonable products - Zymol, Zaino, Swissol. I think some members of the fraternity take it all a bit seriously with the citrus degreaser, deep cleaner, clay bar, polish, wax etc. If you do it well a few times a year or so, its easier to keep clean, but at the end of the day if you're hurtling along at 100+, you're going to get the odd stone chip etc.
Enjoy your new ride.

Regular clean & polish (usually use Autoglym products) Once a week usually (don't polish every time)
I used a clay bar for the first time last week, and will use it every 6 months. Its amazing how much more dirt it pulls out even after a good clean.
Sometimes just cleaning the wheels makes the car look much better/cleaner.
