Post up detailing supplies
 
Just wondering what everyone uses to keep their car clean.

This is all my stuff. Zaino Grand Finale Spray Seal. Zaino Leather in a Bottle which I strongly recommend. Zaino Claybar. Vinegar based Windex for tinted windows. Plastic X for headlights which doesn't really work. Does anyone know anything better? Dawn handwashing fluid for carwashing fluid to remove wax and everything else before the the Zaino claybar and Finale Spray. I have not used the Zaino claybars and Finale Spray yet but I will this weekend.

:eek: That's crazy. That hole garage is dedicated to storing detailing supplies :D Where does the car fit?

Where do you get that Invisible Glass stuff? Does that headlight PlastX work for you?
Do you recommend that Lexol stuff for leather over Zaino?

Car barely fits with all those box's with maybe 1 foot on each side. You can get IG at walmart,lowes, autozone, kragen, checkers, schucks. Yes the plastix works for me when I use it with a polisher. I found the doing plastix by hand doesn't do that good of a job. Lexol or zaino are both good for the leather.

The Zaino Grand Finale is pretty much a wax. I do need to get some polish though.

How does the NXT look on your Athens Blue? Does it give it a wet deep gloss look or does it it a bright shinny look?

Z8 really isn't a wax. I LOVE Z8 and use it regularly but it would NOT be the only thing I use on my car. It's really to enhance the sealant you first put down, it's not meant to be the only thing you use on your car. You're leaving your paint very unprotected if that's all your using to take car of your paint. If your paint is lighter colored I suggest Z2. If it's a darker color than go with Z5. The Z8 is really designed to enhance those 2 sealants, though it can be used on non zaino brands too. Seriously though, Z8 is not meant to be the only thing to use on your paint. Heck, run to walmart or target and at least pick up some Megs TechWax 2.0 or something.

Scrooge 03-02-2008 02:54 PM

Yeah never gone is right. Spray wax/sealant don't really last that long compare to a liquid or paster wax/sealant.

Scrooge 03-02-2008 02:56 PM

Also come no one else has posted up there detail supplies.
