Hey I got a black Saturn about a year ago and while the paint and body are in great shape, it most likely was rarely washed and never waxed. The first few waxes were with Meguiar's Gold, I waxed it probably twice with it from Dec-March. Then around May I put on a coat of Nufinish and another around June or July then applied Mother's spray detailer after a wash since then.
Well, lately I've had some paint start flaking on the hood by the firewall and the spoiler looks full of oxidation (kind of looks like big dried on water spots).
The car was fine for 10 years with not washing/waxing and I get it for a year and the paint is having problems in these two areas but the rest of the car still looks good.
Just wondering is it possible NuFinish attacks instead of protects or maybe I shouldn't use spray detailer after a wash to rejuvinate the wax barrier.
Its really not a big deal since it doesn't affect the way the car functions, but I hate to think I did something wrong by 'messing' with it needlessly, because all paint was fine beforehand.
