I have a 1970 American Motors AMX with the bittersweet orange color which I bought new and drove until 1983. Since then, the car has set under the carport, uncovered, collecting dirt and grime. Its only use has been to serve as our cats "perch". You can hardly imagine how tired and run-down it looked. Truthfully, I was skeptical... but a friend who does auto detailing told me to give the Mothers three-step product a try. So based on that recommendation, I ordered it through Amazon as it was not available locally. I was excited to see what the old buggy could look like. I soon found out one thing - This product takes a lot of rubbing. After rinsing the car off (it doesn't run yet, so I just sponged it off) to get the worst of the grime off, then set to work with the cleaner. I also purchased the Mothers 4 Paint ball and used that in my drill along with lots of rubbing with some old fluffy athletic socks. First coat done: and the results were nothing short of amazing; However, some haze was still visible. So I applied a second coat of cleaner. That one went on much easier, and following the final hand rub, the haze was gone. I wish that I could post photos here for you to see the before and after - Only photos could demonstrate what this product, followed by the step 2 sealer, and step 3 carnuba wax has done. Since the car had been virtually unprotected for nearly 30 years, and exposed to wind, temperature extremes, and blowing rain and snow, there were quite a few surface rust bubbles peeking through the paint. They still remain (after all, it's an old car with completely original paint). But that's okay - The Mothers three step product did its job and I am a happy camper. The only recommendation I would have is to buy two bottls of cleaner if you have a car in a similar condition. I ran short and had to buy a second bottle. In my mind, that's a small price to pay. I will be posting this same review under the step two and step three products to help anyone who may miss this particular review. The system is also available as a complete 3-step kit. You can save a few bucks on shipping to buy it that way. Happy Waxin'... <><

I like Mother's products. They are affordable, and work well when used correctly. The thing about mothers is it is not the best on the market, but as for price, availability, and ease of use any novice to car detailing can make a car look stunning. personal process I wash my car and used a clay bar to before using this product. The clay will remove heavy contaminants and prep the surface to be smooth. It so happens I use the mothers california gold clay bar kit which IMO is the best for the price. The detailer is just ok, the clay is great and so is the premium microfiber towel. The reason why I mentioned all of this is that you need to prep your car before starting to use the 1-2-3 system. So on to the actual review, the step one part they call a pre wax cleaner. If I'm not mistaken it is either a very mild type of car polish and may contain abrasives. Basically it will smooth out your cars surface, and make it shiny from the clear coat surface. I think it did a fair job making it shine and removing surface residue from the clay and detailer. It did an okay job so far with very light swirlmarks. since I am unfamiliar with other polishing compounds that I have been hearing about I will give this product of 3.5 rounded to 4 stars. just because I like it enough for the ease of use/money/amount and ending result. I may change the rating if I like other products I try in the future. but for this price and the amount they give (16oz) this will last me awhile because its 1-2 times a year use. now thats bang for the buck. On my Tc i estimate about 2oz was used for the entire car.

This is my third purchase of this product. It’s the first of three steps. This is basically a cleaner way. Put this on first to get marks, soft scratches, and light tar off your vehicle. This works perfectly getting your paint ready for a wax. Too many people wax an imperfect automobile. Although it does put a shine, it’s not what you should want. The second step puts a shine and prevents swirling motion spots on the paint. The third step is a pure wax that puts an ultimate wax and you can do a fourth step using Mothers Reflections To put an ultimate shine. This step one is very easy to put on and take off. It does not remove clear coat as some other products will do. This product is for the person who really takes care of their vehicle. It’s meant to be used with the three step system. Another great quality Mothers product.

Wow was I impressed with the 2 step polish! I think it made all the difference to use both steps as the 2nd step is a micro step that took care of quite a few surface scratches. I have a 15 year old BMW 325i that I love have have cared for over the years. In the past I swore by the P21S Polish and wax but I wasn't happy with the amount of wax I went through last year so I thought I would try something new. Since my car is a 2002 I try to polish the paint every couple of years as needed but I had to work to get the oxidation marks out and the scratches that should have buffed out never did but this product took care of my paint issues once and for all. The trick is doing the 2nd step, one step before wax didn't do it but once I did the 2nd step the paint was smooth to the touch and slick. I had some circular scratches I don't know how I got on my bumper, looked like my son might have done it with his bike, they came right out! The wheel wells flare out in the front and attract scratches and marks all the time, they are gone. I hand polish and wax and take my time. It wasn't fun doing it 3 times but wow was it worth it! I have a ton of wax to do out SUV great value. Also the polish took out the tar that I normally can't wash off and struggle to get rid of. Very easy process. I am a convert! Love this product line!

I havent polished my car in 10 years. One fender on my honda civic was replaced 12 years ago by a auto body shop, the paint was not as good as the factory paint and the color faded quickly in the California sun. After doing some reasearch I learned that the oxidation was probably the culprit for the dull color. I used this polish with an inexpensive Orbital Waxer. To my suprise the polish removed the oxidation and revealed the bright red paint underneath. My car looks so much better. It did smoothe the roughness on the hood of the car, I think I will need to use clay to remove the imbedded grime first and then polish.
