I really like the Hot Rod Detailer (the pink stuff), it's become one of my fav QDs. Spray Wax is OK as well.

I agree with the Hot Rod detailer. I use it to help dry the car and it makes the paint very slick. The shampoos are ok not bad but not exceptional. The spray wax is different than other spray waxes. It's thicker and you have to spread it on like a liquid wax and then buff it off. A microfiber applicator works well for that. Their entire product line smells like bubblegum.

I've seen them. But for the price, you can just get a proven product from another manufacturer. I can't help but wondering if products targeted to the "average Joe" aren't "average products"???

I've used their interior cleaner; called dash away or something like that, and it was a good product. Still prefer Meg's quick interior detailer which is a very similar product in purpose. Haven't tried anything else.

+1 for Dash Away. Been using that stuff for awhile now.

The Surf City Voodoo Leather Conditioner is outstanding. Leaves the leather feeling very smooth and noticeably softer, especially neglected leather. Did an Eclipse convertible recently and the leather was extremely stiff. Used the voodoo blend and let it soak into the leather, took 3 applications but the result was showroom soft leather. I now buy it by the gallon direct from surf city.
The Dash away is also good for a interior qd when only minimum cleaning power is needed, right on par with the meguiars

I also like Voodoo leather conditioner. The Road trip bug spray is good too.
