Default tried a new car wash product and....

i think it sucked. didn't feel like there was any soap in the water at all, i mixed it per the directions and then mixed it much stronger. http://torcoracefuels.com/component/...art/Itemid,32/

the polish worked ok. went on and off easily and gave it a good shine. i picked up the gift set at the texas nitro jam for $5. figured i would give it a try. have not tried the quick shine, degreaser, or tire shine yet but will update when i do. overall opinion, don't spend the money. what do y'all use?

I use Meguiar's for everything. Car wash, wheel cleaner, polish (the tan bottles w/ numbering system) and NXT synthetic wax.

Meguiars works the best to me in my opinion too. But i get this stuff from my cousins shop... They test everything out they sell and make sure its the best quality. Everyone that works there has a different pair of windshield wipers in their cars.. hence they test everything throughly. They even have a warehouse where they test all their products to make sure they get the best in over all quality. Dont be fooled by the sellers nowa days.. They use the cheapest stuff to save money. But my cousins stuff try it out and if you like it which i bet you will you know who hooked you up lol. Anyways check out his site HSAUTOSHOP.COM Peace!

Zaino products is all I will ever use. Gives a shine like no other and will last a very long time. They have a touch up spray thats makes the shine very brilliant. Zaino is the only way to go.

i get it done at a detail shop. they do the undercarraige, clean, dry, and air hose your mirrors, beat your mats/powerwash rubber floormats, vacuum inside, windex inside, etc, etc...they even wipe down the door jambs, bottominside edge of doors, etc, etc. there are tons of these handcar wash places in chicago, but none as good as this place. they even have a waiting room w/ video games, plasma tv for cubs games, and a billion air fresheners to choose from. they always polish my chrome tips too...and clean out as far into wheelwells as they can.

all for $16.95...i do it weekly. if i go before 10:30am monday-friday, it's half that.

www.pierre'sdetailcenter.com to those who reside in chicago. the place is absolutely amazing...
