I like zaino. Go to www.zainobros.com and check into their Z2 polish.

Wow, that stuff looks like the ****************!! I would love my box to look like the guys z on there. Sound like a lot of work, but if the end result looks like that, it might well be worth it. Thanks!!

I'm A Mother's Boy

I'm down in Dayton and I too keep my Boxster in the garage whenever I'm not out for a drive. I use Mother's products to include the clay bar kit with liquid carnuba wax and the Showtime instant detailer with a microfiber for touchups. I just gave her a bath with Dawn, using a soft brush on the top. Dried the wheels with the leaf blower. Painted 303 Protectant on the top with a paintbrush. She couldn't be prettier.

Yeah, I defiantely have to do some more research.

Hey off topic, did you see the party on I75 today. apparently a bud truck was stuck off the side of the overpass and beer was gushing out to the road below. If it had been a day earlier I could have drove my box under it and got me some free Bud!! Just look up and open my mouth

+1 for Zaino.

RejeX wax is great for the wheels and leaning edges like the front bumper and side mirrors. Bugs rinse off with soapy water.

Best leather care products are from www.colorplus.com. And I've used them all to know.

On tires, plastic and vinyl I use Vinylex. I have heard good reports about the 303 stuff. May try someday.

Get Ragg Topp and treat your top. Cleaner and protectant.

+1 for Zaino. On a silver car it will look fantastic! It also lasts a long time.

Don't use Armor All on the interior. It dries out the plastic and can lead to cracking. I can't recommend anything else to use, but I'd recommend using really nice window shade like: Heatshields

+1 for 303 Happy customer for over a decade. Apply liberally via towel (do NOT just spray as over-spray will get all over glass/clear plastics/paint) then after 10-15mins wipe off excess with soft, lint free towel. You're stuff will look showroom new even after 10yrs in the sun.

I found some Mothers yellow 26 on a shelf in the garage. I think I will try that out on my mountaineer and see how that does. I still here nothing but great things about zaino though. I have read that a lot of pros use carnuba and then a sealant on top of that.
