I bet most of ya never heard of this one...4U Cleaner. It's an RV/marine concentrate cleaner/degreaser. Non toxic, no odor, dirt cheap and the best all purpose cleaner I have ever used. One part cleaner to 10 parts water. I have thrown away my 409, Simple Green, Woolite carpet cleaner and all the rest. Spray in on vinyl/leather seats....sit back and in about 20 seconds watch the dirt start to flow away! Degrease engines and BBQS at stronger mix. Takes red wine out of white slacks, puppy pee out of the carpet and on and on......an $8 combo pack makes up to 10 gallons of product.

Well, I think MP going to AG was one of the best things for cleaning up the info given at that site.

As to the products you got... I just tried Souveran two weeks ago for the first time and I think it is a really nice wax. Probably not worth the money, but still a nice product. I simultaneously tried Fuzion from AG and didn't like it as much as Souveran.

Although to be perfectly honest with you, for $70, I think there are better sealants you can get than Souveran at probably less than 1/2 the price.

Best towel in the world

My favorite non Maguires product is a simple cleaning towel. It’s distributed by Mystic Maid, they have a web site. I’ve had mine about 8 years and it is amazing. It’s the original micro fiber before micro fiber became the standard. They have the patents on split micro fiber technology. It’s a smooth weave as opposed to knitted loops and 50% nylon and 50 % polyester, the more nylon the better. You can clean glass streak free with just water and I am a smoker, so you can imagine how the inside glass can get. It’s great for cleaning dashboards inst clusters etc. They advertise that it will clean and polish all hard surfaces. I called their help line and they assured me that it is clear coat safe. As soon as it warms up here in Ohio I’m going to give it a try on the exterior.

I learned how to use the PC 5 years ago with Pinnacle XMT 1, 2, 3 and #4. I spent many, many hours, days (& nights), weeks honing my skills with this product. XMT seems to work ok, it does what it is supposed to.

The products I go to for a quick detail are Megs #9, and the Gold Class liquid car wax. These products seem to do a really great job at hiding/filling very shallow swirls/scratches.

I know true enthusiests/professionals are adamant on using a 2-3 stage process, or in extreme detailers, a 4-5 stage process, but I like these products for a quick detail, and these products are great at just that, a quick detail.

The Liquid Gold Class will give your finish a deep, shiny gloss.

Well I've got Pinnacle Souveran and I must admit that it some really great stuff, it is just too easy to work with.

Natty's Red- a wax you can use in the sun! It gives that wet look everyone is looking for, I layered it over NXT 2.0 on a customer's car and we were both very happy with the outcome.

Pinnacle applicator pads- I like them so many times better than the Meguiar's foam pads, sorry. They are thicker, more ergonomic and not separated in the middle, plus the blue color shows when the pad begins to become saturated.

So does the pad that comes with NXT Generation Tech Wax 2.0.

Turtle wax foaming tyre shine.
The 500ml aerosol seems to last ages.

But it is not as thick and ergonomic, though. Somehow the foam is just as soft yet more dense. I bought them because they were on sale at AG, I definitely plan on ordering more.
