Car Washing help

Hey All,

What do u use to give a good look on the car? I have had zip wax and liked it but it had its flaws(left some whiteness film). Wondering if there is something new i can try?? Ideas?

I need to buy something, ran out.

I use this stuff

seems to do a nice job. That is after washing I use that stuff, spray it on the wet car and dry. Leaves a nice shine. Other than that I wax every so often with Meguires most of the time.

Zaino and Meguires seem to be the top ones people talk about. Meguires has the advantage of being everywhere, whereas Zaino has to be ordered. I use, like, and would recommend Zaino. I have never used Meguires except for the interior detailer which I like.

If you don't have anything, and you have to do the car now, go shopping, Meguires is everywhere including WalMart.

Get the Meguires NXT wax. I've always used Meguries and tried the NXT for the first time today and it was very nice. Worth the couple of bucks more!

sorry I didnt get back to this sooner, dont use dish soap, its too harsh and will remove all wax and polish and doesnt do as well of a job nor does it lubricate the surface during a wash as well as car shampoos

I like Meguiars Gold Class and NXT shampoos.

I've got many trophies with past Mustang and still winning with new car while using this product. Clean motor, interior, run through touchless car wash and use this. Works great. A very easy thing to do.
