    Greetings, I'd like to join you folks, because we're all a little crazy. That's right, we decided to pay extra, since Blizzard is is such a cool color :cool:.

    On another note, what polish, wax, or other polymer does everyone use to keep that Pearl finish looking good. Any one also use that big red duster.
    Thanks Joe

    I haven't put that first coat of wax on yet, but I use Meguiar's everything. The Mist and Wipe (Detailing Mist) is awesome.

    My usual process: Clay/H7/ColorX/Ultimate Wax/Ultimate Detailer

    In that order, but rarely all in the same day.:D

    The ColorX is a cleaner/polish/finish with similar properties to the TechWax 1st Gen. The wax is used to "layer" and create an even smoother finish.
    The UD is for a final detail after washing.

    Wheels and tires are done with Eagle 1 wheel and tire cleaner. This stuff is amazing! It's my only deviation from Meguiar's (and has nothing to do with the shine:)). It's only about $4/bottle- you just spray it on and wait 30 seconds. My previously well-scrubbed tires (as of a week ago) had brown oxidation gunk just running off them. A quick rinse and they were like new!

    All interior vinyl surfaces (and weather seals) are treated with Meguiar's #40 Vinyl and Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner. Regular cleaning is done with Meguiar's Interior Quick Detailer.

    I've used Meguiar's Products in varied forms since the mid 1960's.

    There's a lot of white in that picture! It must be blinding looking at it from that angle!
