I am supposed to post her so her it goes. I joined this sute to find out if there are a few products that do well enough, I am not OCD about my Infiniti, There are no tooth brushes or Q-Tips in my wash locker. I use car washes an wax it one a year, Before I sell a car I have it detailed.

Just courious what people are using. For instance I prefer Zaino Leather cleaner because it keeps the leather smell alive even though I know Most cars today are Vinyl covered leather.
 
what kind of wax have you been using for your once a year wax job? there are plenty of newer wipe on and walk away products that are very easy to use and have good results. you can do it several times a year easily and afford yourself better protection and appearance for your ride. what kind of shape is your paint in?
 
Infamous -

Welcome to a great Forum - I hope your enjoy your stay.

I have been using Zaino Z9 Leather Soft Spray Cleaner for years and it has always been a great product for cleaning and helping condition the leather surfaces (whatever they may be made of ) of about every vehicle out there. This product especially works great on German car leather interiors.

I also have had great success with Leather Masters Leather Vital for helping clean and soften hard, neglected, leather, and their Leather Protection Cream for finishing off the work.

I have the Zaino Z10 Leather Conditioner as well, but hardly use it on anything but American cars or those that want to get that really nice conditioning and leather smell..

Good luck with your car and research here !

I use Liquid Glass and some Zaino my brother gave to me a couple years ago, I see the crates of cleaners, waxes.sealers, and stuff and have to think this is a fun hobby or an crazy obsession. I cannot imagine with todays paint formulas and clear coats needing so much protection, Leathers are vinyl coated nowadays and most of the "leather" seats are indeed vinyl. Especially since people don't usually keep their vehicles more than a few years,

My car is a 2010 Infiniti EX35 and its in great shape. White Pearl. I Bought white so I don't have to clean it as much and a lot of imperfections are hidden, The wax beads up a long time and the only time I run it through a car wsh is if I get caught in the rain, I can then check the wax and if it's smooth to the touch I let it go. I will use a California duster on it in pollen season though. A Black car is a career. I had one. It was never black. Always had a white coating on it LOL. I cleaned it and it looked good for about 15 minutes or one trip.

I don't mind waxing it once a year. Being in the South we don;t get any snow and have to deal with salt and sand. Northern cars are not worth as much down here for those who use Carfax, because the urban roads are not as good, they tend to idle in traffic more and the Winter weather.

I use Meguiars wipe on the motorcycle. I never put a hose to a bike,
