[momo]

they make way too much stuff that competes with themselves. it gives me tired head trying to pick what to buy.

whats best?

car wash (gold class or nxt?)
wax?

and the killers:
dash cleaner
leather stuff
tire and wheel crap


i think im just going to buy NXT all the way across the board.

they dont compete with themselves. they just have many products for different people

the nxt stuff is real easy to use. last time i tried the wax (when it first came out) it went on and off real easy, shined well, just didnt last long.

Not a huge fan of the NXT wax.

I like their interior detailer, leather conditioner (2 part...conditioner only as recommendation of Nick), and their old blue tin wax.

For soap...Im a huge fan of Optimum NoRinse. Bought a gallon and its lasted me forever. 1oz per 2 gallons

I just looked up that Optimum NoRinse on youtube. That's crazy.

As far as interior cleaners:
I use Meguiar's Natural Shine Protectant on the dash and door panels. It seems to work well and doesn't leave things greasy like Armor All. I'll keep using this until someone says there is a better option.

I currently use Meguiar's Gold Class Rich Leather Spray. This one I'm on the fence with. It doesn't clean enough but I guess nothing does on leather.
I guess I will go with the leather conditioner.

I use the 105/205 polishes, NXT wax (or whatever you want), and most of the interior stuff.

To me the 105/205 polishes are a no-brainer easy to be honest and I just ignore their 20 other polishes. So basically for my home I have 2 polishes, 1 wax, and then the various wheel/tire cleaners, GPC, and so on.

105 cuts like a beast but is not very user friendly. It tends to dust a lot more than other polishes.

I can agree to that, especially on a hot/warm day. I just do smaller areas with thinner usage to get it done.

For leather I've always like Lexol leather cleaner and then their conditioner as well. Orange bottle, can't miss it.

This is an understatement, lol.

Dash - meguiar's 40
Leather - Gold Class cleaner/conditioner. You can also use leatherique, but it's pretty expensive, and it's recommended to leave it on overnight.

Also, on those, apply a coat to a small microfiber towel, apply to the dash/leather, let it sit for a few minutes, then go back over it with a dry towel to wipe off the excess.

Wheels and tires - I just used to spray meg's all purpose cleaner on both, let it sit for a minute, then, scrub the tires with soapy water. On the wheels, use a softer brush to do the face of the wheel with soapy water. We used a long cone shaped brush to get between the spokes, and get the barrel of the wheel, try to hose it off before it dries or it could leave water spots on the wheel.

Car wash, ONR like posted below, just make sure you use a waffle weave MF towel to dry it with.

Wax, most over the counter stuff you can buy from chain stores will only last a week or two max. I used to always prefer blackfire wet diamond, or wolfgang fusion when I worked for Nick, they'll both last a few months in Texas heat, and both look awesome.
