Well I have a question to put out.
( no turtle wax allowed)

On detailing your cars "WHAT DO YOU USE"?

The reason I ask is there is alot of different items out there, and I hear, I read, and I see alot of conflicting information.

PLEASE NOTE WE ARE DISCUSSING AN OLD OXIDIZED PAINT JOB.

One thing is that some polishes have silicones. Some say that is not good because it gets into the paint.

Another is some have petroleum distilates that are also not to be good for paint.

Another, and another...

I have heard, and read that for paint the best product to protect that will not get into paint and will create proctection is TEFLON.

I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED 3m AND MEQUIERS MYSELF.

WHAT ABOUT YOU??????

Please comment?

If I was going to BUFF the car out, I would use the 3 M products. As for cleaning and close detailing, you cant beat the McGuiarers brand.

I have only used meguiars for the last 6-7 years and never had any problems and it always turned out real nice

Good Luck
