Fellas,

My questions are mostly aimed at the "veterans" here. As soon as I get "up to speed" so to speak on detailling I'll be more than happy to contribute.

Questions are..........

I want the BEST product for each scenario for my car.

-What is the best leather car seat cleaner/conditioner?
-What's the best wax /polymer?
-What's the best cleaner/conditioner for the rubber molding around the windows, hood, trunk, etc.?
-What's the best wheel/ tire cleaner/conditioner?
-The best for the dash/vinyl /plastics in the interior?
-The best engine cleaner /conditioner?

-Pros and cons of a car bra?
-Using a car cover- How often do you use one?
-How do you protect your car from parking lot nicks and dings without hiring a security guard to sit next to your car every time you go somewhere?

I do prefer a good smelling(i.e.-Zaino) product and a product with a high UV sun protection(i.e.-303 Aerospace Protectant)

Thanks in advance for any feedback. [Smile]

We use Zaino for most of what you are asking about. As for the engine we use the Automotive Simple Green. I only use that about once a year. The rest of the time a damp cloth is all I use to clean down the engine.

Zaino is what I have been useing for close to 3 years now.

We have a car cover but only use it in the winter time when we put the car away. We do not have a bra on the car, some have had bad luck but others on this board only use them on long trips and sem to have no problems. It all dpends on the quality of the cover and how you use it. As far as door dings in parking lots, lets just say we park way out away from everyone. good luck on your quest, Keep it safe.
