Sooooooo......I was at Target the other day and saw this:
Meguiar's Ultimate Wash & Wax for $8.99 and right next to it:
Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo and Conditioner on sale for $5.99.
So the question becomes, which one is better? I don't really have a way of washing my car here at the apt, there is no hose with running water (SUCKS, btw), but I think I will find a way to do this. Anyways, I digress. I want nothing more than give my baby a wash, clay bar and a wax. I got the clay bars, now I just need the wash part and then the wax. Was going to go with the NXT wax from Meguiar's as well.

2 cents please and thank you!

VeeTee, you should probably buy from Chemical Guys instead or even Adam's Premium Car Care. I use this HoneyDew Snow Foam Premium High Suds Wash

I start with the foam cannon and then switch to the 2 bucket method along with a long list of things I do to the car that takes almost a full day to wash / detail.

Lots of people on detail sites, said go for Meguires NXT2 products...but I cant find them in retail stores. I found some on Amazon.com, I have not used it yet but it is a cost effective complete set.

Hey bud, I'm going to try to dig up the big 3 Gallon jug of spray wax we ussed when we owned an auto detail place, I still use the stuff you wash the car as usual and then spray it on the car then shammy it off and it looks AMAZING..

I'll reply to this sometime this weekend when i get into storage and let you know! The entire line of products this company offers is UN-beatable

I'm using a spray on that you mist on to the car while it is still wet from washing. Towel dry and then I use a clean towel to wipe to a nice shine! It is made by the Lucas oils group. Works great IMO.

Well i like the ultimate car shampoo, i find it's lubricity very efficient and as they claim its the only car shampoo that has car wax in it.

I don't have access to a water hose in my building either.

My VT does not need any special wax or polish after 6 months. Its finish is still holding up fine. I take it to a brushless car wash where guys rub it down by hand. I never use any sort of wax on it because it doesn't need it yet.

Between these washes I use only straight water in a pressure wash booth and dry it with a micro-fiber cloth.

Sounds like a soapy massage gone crooked. :what:
