I suggest cutting and pasting the exact message you posted here and send to Gary himself. http://www.perfectautofinish.com/

You can refer to Gary's website for step instructions IIRC, just search around a bit.

Here's what I think I remember about his min-seminar on Mother's Day.

1) Wet down car, i.e., full rinse (power spray here would be okay)
2) Wash car with wool mit (or micro-fiber towel), lots of suds, rinse mitt in separate bucket.
3) Rinse car
4) Soap up car again in small sections and use clay bar with Detail Spray
5) Wash and rinse car again
6) Dry with waffle weave micro-fiber towel (this is the only thing the waffle weave is used for - drying).
7) Deal with swirl marks, etc., if you have the tools and skills (not going to go into that here)
8) Apply Gary's sealant with a sponge applicator, and remove with a micro-fiber towel.
9) Done

Don't hold me to this, but I think I got it right... check it vs. Gary's info.

after you wash you car, apply the paint cleaner to one small section at a time, using a foam or terri applicator pad, remove with small micro fiber towel as you work. apply the paint seal on entire car, thin layer, let it sit for appx 20 minutes, remove with MF towel. the poly seal is a spray on wipe off polymer that will enhance the finish, use once a month or so. the leather cleaner and conditioner should be used 3-4 times a year, instructions are on all bottles. the waffle weave towel is for drying, spray and shine will remove dust finger prints. I notice you didn't get the clay bar, which is an important step in the prepping of the car. if you don't do it now, don't worry, you can order it and do it down the road, Gary
