What wash/detailing products do you use?

Just curious to see what everyone here uses...

I used to use a lot of Meguiar's products on my old stangs and they seemed to work pretty well.

But since I bought my new Mustang, I took the Zaino challenge and have been VERY pleased thus far.


So what do you use?

I used the ice products from turtle wax and they work great a little on the pricey side but well worth it

you should price Zaino.

I like meguiers. I've heard good things about Ice. Out to lunch on the Harley stuff and to me the price to performance of Zaino is not worth it.

Used to use Meguiar's Gold class wax. then I switched to Zaino. The last one I tried was Poor Boys.

I've been most happy with Zaino, so I'll switch back after I use up the Poor Boys. I also always use Meguiar's Gold Class soap. Absorber. Vinylex. Black Magic Tire Wet. Mother's clay bars (didn't care much for the Zaino ones).

zaino is for ballers only

it is the best product I have used thus far, hands down. it is also the most expensive product I have used.... and for that reason, I wouldn't use it on a daily-driven and/or non-garaged car.

but since my Mustang is a garage queen, and literally just a hobby/show car, I don't mind spending a little extra money for better results.

I use Meguiars products exclusively on the little shiny car, and wash/wax it pretty much weekly.

I use Dawn Dish Soap twice a year on The Beast. And it seems I buff it dry with ten grit ... LOL!

I use 303 aerospace protectant on all the rubber plastic and vynil.
I use Rejex on the outside 2 x a yr (got it at work) and it beads water great and all the bugs wash off with a hose water and a sponge.
In between rejex coats Ill wax it with a teflon marine wax to keep it Chiny.
I dont waste a lot of $$ on all the high dollar Zaino stuff
