Hi Everyone,



I've read the Autopia's care tips for a long time and just discovered there is a forum! Can't wait to read more about what people are doing and using. I am definitely a detail enthusiast and would love to learn more from the experts here. :bow



My current lineup of products are all over the counter stuffs...



Turtle Wax Zip Wax carwash, to wash



The Absorber, for drying



Meguiar's Deep Crystal Polish (#2), for shine



Turtle Wax 100% carnauba paste wax, for protection



Turtle Wax Extreme Cleaner wax, for cleaning and protection



Meguiar's Scratch X, for scratches and light swirl marks



Black Magic Tire Wet gel, for tire dressing



Turtle Wax Finish 2001 Protection Spray for vinyl



Lexol Leather conditioner for leather



I have two relatively new cars. One has the "exterior protection" package from the dealership (yeah, I got ripped off on that

:mad: And the other I am taking the good ol' polish/wax method.



Take care!
 
:welcome Good to meet you love2shine!



By the way, you mentioned using Turtle's Zip Waz car wash...it doesn't get much press around here, but it is my preferred car wash on my gf's Saturn. For some reason, every car wash I use on her car "rainbows" a lot. That's not a problem if you're going to polish or wax, but she doesn't and the rainbow always drives me crazy...well Zip wax wash doesn't seem to do it. Great stuff for her car.
 
Thanks for the welcome, guys. Before you know it, I will accumulate enough knowledge to post whoring (like I already do on another forum :D)



So far I have been satisfied with Turtle Wax's products but maybe that's because I have yet to seen good stuffs like S100 or Zaino. I have about 300 pages of detail archives to go through. Thanks again!
 
Welcome to the Forum!!!



After you've been here for a while, you'll become one of the "advise-givers" rather than "advise-takers"!



I use all the Zaino products and I love 'em.



Read everything and you'll just absorb the knowledge ! There's lots of it around here!

I didn't go too broke the first month, but I did buy about 4 or 5 new things. . .still saving for that PC.



:welcome noobie!

Hi love2shine.. nice to see another person from the bay area around here. :) where in the east are you?



I also used and loved turtle zip wax.. But i picked up a gallon of meguiar's gold class wash and like that a bit better, so i have a lot of that to go through.

Hi Raymond, thanks for the welcome. I am in Hayward!



I just ran out of the TW zip wax wash, so I can't wait to get my hands on Meg's GC wash...which seems to be most recommended wash.
