I am the proud owner of a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix GT. Navy Metallic Blue with high polish tri-spoke wheels. It's fully loaded except for leather. This is my daily driver and I haven't really started to mod it very much. I have a few plans but all depend on money and the car's ability to get me to work.
Gonna start off with a few pictures of my car using different detailing products. I have been detailing cars for about 16 years now and I have used many different products. Below are a few coments about some of them.
This is my current routine:
Meguiar's NXT Car Wash: Good wash. Not enough suds for my taste. I use warm water too.
Meguiar's White Claybar: (Once every 6 to 8 weeks) This clay system is very easy to use and provides good results. I bought it as a kit with Quick Detailer, Cleaner wax and a Microfiber towel for about $20.00. One of the best investments I've made. I've used the same clay bar 3 times already and it still looks fairly clean. Waxing after claying is much easier and provides better shine. I love the clay!
Meguiar's Step 2 Polish: After claying I like to use a polish to remove any left over clay residue. I've been using Meguiar's Step 2 Red bottle because it's what I have in the garage. I might try something else next season. It works well and does condition the paint but it is harder to remove than other products I've used.
Meguiar's NXT Liquid Wax: What can I say. This stuff is great! I have used probably 50 different waxes and this stuff is by far the best over the counter wax out there. It goes on easy by hand or with an orbital buffer. You can do the whole car before removing. Then, just a few wipes and it comes off clean. Protects longer too. I have 2 coats on now and after 3 washes the paint still feels slick and the water beads like crazy.
Meguiar's NXT Spray Wax: Don't waste your time. It sprays everywhere, spreads unevenly and is harder to get off than the regular liquid wax. I had high hopes but was disappointed.
Eagle 1 Wheel & Tire Cleaner: I used to use bleach white because it melted away dirt like nothing else. But it used to leave the tires grey. The Eagle 1 stuff is Awesome. It cleans as good as Bleach White but doesn't discolor the tires. Also seems pretty safe on my clear coated wheels. I'm very happy with it.
Dupont Teflon Tire Protectant: I have seen this stuff for a long time but was always afraid to try it. I'm glad I finally did. It lasts longer than anything else I've ever used. The tires look naturaly black and clean for a long time. If you want a lot of shine this is not the stuff for you. I prefer clean, black tires. That's what Dupont gives me.
