Default Be honest now

Everyone has their own opinions on what is the best products etc for car maintenance, but I don't want any arguing in this thread. I just want to hear some opinions on what is the best tire shine/gloss product, what is the best wax product (in your opinion), and any other products you have used that given you the best results. It doesn't come down to brand name, as a friend of mine has a car wash service and he doesn't use any brandname stuff, all bulk liquids and perfumes.

Ive heard zaino's is very good. But, they tell me P21S is the best, just its a tad expensive. I'm going to try out shining out, maybe its better than eagle one which is what I currently use.

seriously, that "joe's" thing is starting to get pretty played out. it was funny at first, but not so much anymore..

to be on topic, i really like using mothers claybar with a layer of meguiar's NXT on top of it.. NXT is a synthetic wax much like zaino.. for tires, i really like the meguairs spray on shine.. not the foam, but the shine..

another honest statement from me is that, it is really expensive...so that's why i use my uncles' haha

i honestly couldn't give u a great testimonial, i just noticed he used it, liked the finished product and bugged him to use it on my car

This is the best tire shine product out there, IMO. And I have tried most of them.

I just got Blackfire Sealant, works great.

Before that I would use Mother's Reflections Wax and Top Coat.

I still have not found a tire shine that I like yet.

I follow pretty much the same process with some amazing results. I really like synthetic waxes like the NXT wax.
