oh wow....


and as for me - Shell gas station quick car wash...

-TomazWSwww.tomazws.com
20min in the wash bay at work.. free of course =]

so.. I use..

their soap, tire shine, wax, buffer, shammy.. and everything else I can get my hands on.
haha

Car wash soap... dont know what its called but it seriously smells like bananas
Wax
Vaccum

Then I'll go to this car wash is and I'll:
Shampoo the seats and carpet
And then there's this machine that sprays a scent in the car (I use coconut smile.gif lol)
Then armoural all the vinyle

I really need to get around to doing all this stuff again... My car is so dirty

Most of the stuff I only use once in a while, when the car really needs it.

I use rexin for poishing I found it the best
Because my car parks outside, I have to wax it once a month with Zymol.
Between waxes, I only wash my car with water. No soap.
I only use soap when I want to strip of old wax every 3-4 months.
I'm pretty happy with the result on my 13 yo original paint on my Celica. smile.gif

zymol. that's what i was thinking of. where can i get some of that? do you claybar your car?

-Alex {](O_o)[}1993.5 Toyota Supra....with stuff........sorta broken....1998 Toyota Celica....this one, too, has stuff........broken....yeah...definitely broken....
Zymol cleaner wax is ~$13 at Walmart.
I use clay bar once a year.
Wax alone will not make any car look like that.
You will need to clean it throughly.
With your finger, it should feel like glass before waxing.

And any quick waxing products NEVER touch my car.
