Very sharp looking Explorer. As far as washing goes, I imagine you'll be doing quite a bit of that to keep it clean looking.Was able to snap a few pics before it got rained on, now to figure out how to wash and wax a black vehicle

Welcome to the Forum Kdear.:wavey:Hi
I just got my 2014 Explorer Sport last week. I am getting a very strong gas smell coming through the vents. It hasn't leaked anything on the garage floor but the smell is so strong in the garage it is coming in the house. I had to finally park it outside. Calling the dealership tomorrow. Has anyone else heard of this or had this problem?
Nice color choice!
It's an attention grabber! Got my first speeding ticket last week. 5 months into ownership!
Very nice '14 Sport! I got the same one and so far my wife loves it. Since this picture I have added the mud guards like the one in your pics. Those are a big help to protect the lower sides of the car.
Now comes the task to keep this baby clean and waxed!
So does anyone use polish before they wax? I have never used it and not sure if it makes that big a difference.
I bought some McQuires Ultimate over the weekend to try and the wax says its safe if you get some on the plastic but the polish says not to. Don't know if its worth it.

Check out my post #7 in regards to my black corvette.
With a black finish, it is important to get the small surface scratches off before wax is applied otherwise when the wax wears off you will end up with swirl marks. Th polish removes them. Wax just "fills-in" the surface scratches. Used car dealers love "Car Glaze", which just fills in the small scratches until the car is washed.
But again - it depends on how deep you want to get.
On the flip side - I had a black Avalanche that always went through a car wash and never had any swirl marks - but I washed it often.
Hope this helps - always remember - polish is not wax and polish and wax should be applied with an orbital machine for best results.
