Do what most of us have done at one point and do your own due diligence.

There are many threads about each item mentioned so search for them.

Then, after you have researched them ask me some questions and I will be glad to help you out.

I might sound harsh, but c'mon. If everyone new here gave a post like that the forum would be cluttered with just those posts alone. This forum has a plethora of knowledes on each and every subject mention so use it to your advantage.

Once again, if you do so and show at least a minor attempt in doing some due diligence on your part I as well as others will help you out.

Mostly, what you're gonna get in response is everybody's favorite stuff. Doesn't mean their choice is the best, only what their experience has been, perhaps on a very limited basis.

Here's what I recommend:


Wheel Cleaner ONR
:Car Polish Megs #205 or Ult Polish
:Sealant Blackfire Wet Diamond (truly AWESOME stuff)
:Wax Collinite 845; P21s
:Water Spots ONR or a detailing spray
:Swirl Remover Megs #105 or Megs Ult Compound
:Tire Shine whatever I have on the shelf (Megs Hot Shine)
:Black Trim Megs Ult Protectant (not in the spray bottle)
:Bug&Tar Remover Fabric softener sheets & H2O
:Carpet Cleaners Folex

Asking a question like this is like asking what car to buy, or shoes to get. It is all about opinions. Mist of the stuff on AG is great. If we all start posting what we use, you will be even more confused. LOL.

[embolism]

do a search on show and shines for your cars then see what was used to achieve those results.

It can get pricey building up your products so stick to one sealant and one wax. Most of the final look depends on how well the car is polished anyhow so spend the time finding the right combination of polishes and the tools to use them for your ride.

Also learn how to properly wash and dry your car or your nice finish won't even last you one season....

Yeah, start searching, ask questions and do lots of reading!!! I have spent the better half of 4 full days reading and asking members questions. This forum has been great, but you have to do some leg work on your own so you understand the products.
