The 5 Step Car Care Cycle

With the wide variety of detailing products available, choosing the right products to clean your car can be a bit overwhelming. Meguiars® has developed the 5-Step Paint Care Cycle to outline the five basic, but important procedures and accompanying products that enable you to restore and maintain your daily driver or show cars paint finish. The five steps are washing, cleaning/prepping, polishing, protecting/waxing and maintaining.
