What do you use to clean your car (products)

MacLean · 04-14-2012, 12:56 PM

I was curious as to what most of you use to clean your cars with inside & outside? I have heard that Armor All is not recommended for using on the cars dashboard & on the tires. I have used Armor All on the dashboard & on the tires of all the vehicles that I have owned & have never had any problems. Oh for those of you that have cloth seats what do you use to clean them with?

Check detailing section.

Thanks.......

Sometimes I wonder if I know to read. I have seen & came across so much in this forum that it is hard to remember everything.

I used to mix and match but since meguiars reformulated most of the lineup.... I'm hooked. I always get compliments for having a beautifully shined car. My neighbors try to compete with their shine but can't match up. They ask how I do it but its my secret. Lol. I will just say I use all meguiars and a special buffing cloth..

Cloth seats I use blue coral. Works great.

Meguiars products are amazing. Makes my car looking super metallic.

RonRizz · 04-14-2012, 02:34 PM

mequiars gold class for me, start to finish.
shampoo, wipes, glass, wax, tire shine, ect.
Funny story this morning after my regular Saturday wash, I run to the market for a few things. I come out, and there are a few youngsters checkin' out my ride from a few feet away. One kid calls out to me "Dude, that is a sweet looking Porsche" lol. I chuckled and told him it was a Nissan, way better than any Porsche!!

Have used the 303 Aero the last couple of years. It has worked well for me. A little goes a long way.
