Your Ol reliable (Ya just keep going back to product)

This thread inspired a thought. Is there one particular product, that in light of all the recent releases, you just keep going back to? It could be a polish or a sealant, or even a wax. Just a quick answer and rational. For me its Four Star UPP, as a sealant. Im still playing with FS BS polishes, and the Optimum line, as well as One Grands. Its been a while since Ive used PB's polishes. Ive tried the newer items, AquaWax, OptiSeal, but have yet to really try Zaino. I think my next adventure will be a base coat of OptiSeal, followed by UPP for slickness. I have to admit, I was amazed at the lack of dust attraction with OS. After nearly a week, and a couple hundred miles in detail traveling, I had hardly any accumulation to speak of.

So without any bashing of products, what is it, and why do you!?
 
Mother's Cal. Gold Cleaner wax; paste.



Most of my vehicles sit outside; I don't always have time for clay and the long process. It lasts long enough and looks just great until I can get around to a full detail. Plus it generally keeps lightly bonded contaminants off.
 
Great post Patrick!!!!! Funny I was just thinking the same an hour ago and after doing a couple of used cars for a buddy of mine with regular products and trying what I had purchased in the last 2 years and trying to use up. Funny I had purchased most of these hype products after hearing people talk about them on this site and autogeek forum and just really not impressed with a bunch of stuff I purchased.



My ole reliables and most trusted products with the best results are

Wool pads still kick azz in my book (too bad I can not use them on every car) Look at the trend I started lately. Everyone is loving them and I am glad.

Presta polishes

Menzerna

Zaino

Pinkstuf degreaser/apc

Lake Country



These are my to go to products all the time and they work for me the best and I am proud to use them. My results are excellent! Maybe someday they will change, but for now this is my all favorite brand list.
 
Well Menzerna and Prima swirl would be the ones.



I move so fast these days, receiving samples from all over the globe, custom mixing products, changing my techniques every few months and creating new detailing product category's like ASD's (all surface detailer), Drying aid sprays and Trim burnishes but when it gets back to polish, their they are, doing the job.



I just hope that menz release some even better polishes in a few years time that take reflection clarity to another level
 
i've tried many different wheel & tire cleaners and this does it every time...

Quikshine.



Car can sit in the garage get a coat of dust on it, nothing that QS and a microfiber doesn't take care of. The good thing is that QS leave depth to the paint.

P21S Total Auto wash

P21S Paste Wax
