Questions about detailing in the fall/winter?

I have an 04 G35 in the twilight blue...It needs compounding and polish. I live in VA so I feel the effect of all 4 seasons. Would it be ok to do this this time of year or should I wait till the early stages of spring? Thanks

You can do it anytime you want. There is no specific time to do it. When its in the 60's would be the best for you.

Do it now including a sealant to protect your paint for winter.

Where do you live in VA? I'm out in the Centreville area. I'd be happy to help. I'd have to meet you, because the stupid apartment complex has already shut off the water due to the temps.

thanks man i just got it a week ago and im about to start buying mods for it. Probably going to wait until after winter time to have it all put on just so it will be ready for the warm weather. try Menzerna Intro Kit to get your g looking right man. That imo is the best wax polish cutting agents out there.
