Re: What do you use for car care?

I use just a basic car wash for getting dirt off, then chamois dry...then use CRC window cleaner in a Blue can, awesome stuff and then some Trade quality "Snappy Finish" for a fast polish

sweet

for wheels I use left over car wash + degreaser/wheel cleaner then I scrub the tyres with an old broom head and when dry, apply slicon with brush or can

I work on car yard, I wash my car out back at least 2 times a week, lol
