I just tried Surf City Barrier Reef Carnauba wax on my new 2012 and was very pleased. Easy to use and unbelievable gloss shine. No residue on the black trim. I had previously used a Maguires Ultimate Quick Wax but it left a large stain on the bumper and streaks on the hood. I then tried Maguires Quick Detailer to try and get them off, but it didn't work. I assumed they were permanent. Granted, the spots were hard to see, and only from an angle, but they were there. I was surprised after waxing with the Carnauba wax the spot on the bumper and hood streaks were all gone.

NXT for me
I like Meguiar's NXT. I am also a fan of the Mr. Clean Car Wash system. I've about cleaned out the leftover stock at the NAPA warehouse. It might be time to hit up E-bay to see what refills are still available. I've wondered about using an RV water filter on my hose bib to get rid of minerals and water spots. My Bullitt has never had water spots and minimal scratches from drying. The Mr. Clean air dry works great for me.

I'm currently in the process of restoring my exterior after driving a 2100 mile rally from June 19th to the 21st. (http://realdealbrazil.blogspot.com/2...-in-rally.html) The car needed to be done prior to putting the decals on, so after removing the decals it's the perfect time to begin. The decals left very little residue, virtually none if removed after the car baked in the sun (but your fingertips get burnt if you aren't careful).
The has been washed and clayed, it's now resting comfortably in a garage waiting for me to get home and begin taping and buffing out swirls. I'll take some before and after pix to post in a separate thread for anyone interested.

I use it all the time on the inside with no problems/mess whatsoever, what kind of problems does it cause for you?
