I use Meguires detail spray every week when I wash the truck. This weekend when I waxed I switched from Meguires to Eagle 1 Nano paste wax, its pretty good stuff. When I run out of this I want to try Mothers. I have to keep the paint drippin' :D

I really like Malco Products, which is usually sold to most dealerships in our area and all the detail shops.

 

Malco

  • Red Thunder (mix 50/50 with water, degrease engine, clean door jams, wheel wells and also used as carpet cleaner
  • Blue Blazes (tire coat)
  • Bumper Bright (heavy silicone for bumper plastic and rubber)
  • Buff Lite II (light buffing compound for fine scratches and oxidation)

But recently I have also started using Zaino Brothers, which is awesome, to say the least. I purchased a kit, which contained several wax and cleaner steps, along with claybar.

Wet sand and polish is the way to go with that. BTDT.

I will be using Zaino this summer.

 

Although I just bought some Simoniz instant detailer/spray polish for the time being. This stuff is awesome. I highly recommend this product.

But in all honesty, regardless of the cleaning products you are using (there are many good ones) ;it all comes down to the washing/drying process that makes a difference in how well your paint will hold up. Throw away your sponge and bath towels. Get your self a 100% sheep wool mitt and some good quality micro fiber towels. If you use these supplies properly, you will get minimal scratches ecspecially on black paint.

 

Also.... on chrome wheels, windex works wonders.
