what i offer is a premium service for your car.
unlike other "detailers" or if you can even call them that. i take step processes to insure the best outcome possible. I use premium mf towels / 2 step bucket methods / best quality polishes (menzerna,prima) and your choice of wax.
Most people don't understand that there are processes to get rid of swirls and junk on your clear coat before you can really get the whole nine yards of the wax or awesome look you want your car to look like.
most customers i do have never claybarred their car nor put protection of synthetic wax to protect it from water etchings and such.
First ... if your just washing your car and waxing it...and the wax looks great for maybe ... 1-2 days is because your layering the wax on top of contaminated clear coat.
claybar will remove anything a car wash cannot get like tree sap, tar, pollution. things that get clogged up on your clear coat.
polish will remove the swirls / scratches / water etchings that are on your clear coat
then a choice of your wax will protect & gloss your clear coat.
synthetic wax is a popular choice by most colorado people because it protects and beads the clear coat nicely... it will last around 2-3 months depending on your washes and on the weather.
carnuaba wax is a choice for people that want the best shine for the car show the next day or something to impress the next door neighbors.
although i can't put everything on words of what other choices you have, i can definitely explain everything in person and answer most of your questions. I just don't like detailing a clients vehicle, i love to explain to them on how to maintain a swirl-free car. I treat every car i do like my own and i'm a car fanatic
here are some pictures of before & afters.

what i did for this customer is a 2 step process polish. i cut down the swirls with a hard pad (orange pad) then i had to reduce the haziness in the clearcoat with a softer pad(white) and a different polish for a much glossier finish. I then waxed the car with synthetic wax to protect it because thats what the customer wanted.
note: that you can put synthetic wax to protect then always put carnuaba wax maybe a day after for a car show.
another thing is... the choice of your towels and the way you dry your cars is a HUGE thing for maintaining a swirl-free car. I offer premium Microfiber towels for drying and waxing that i took a long time to find the right manufacturers. The microfiber i chose are from korea/china the only places that have the machine to intertwine the weaves on a premium microfiber that even the fingers cannot feel (thats how soft it is)
