what is the best stuff to use on my car to really make it shine. I am using this car wash that seems to be working but is there any kind of wash, wax, or polish that really makes it look good? I know that meguiars makes good stuff but has anyone used it and saw how good it did? Thanks.

Your general answer on these boards (and many others) will be Zaino. (enter Zaino masters, presidents, etc. here)  I personally can't justify spending that much on a car wash. I use Meguiars and find that it looks really good. Good enough for me at least.

zaino appears to have a loyal (fanatical ) following. i have a silver tour and use meguiar's. seen a silver tour with zaino and didn't/couldn't justify the price difference. if you don't have the time, (or money) use a good car wash soap and meguiar's cleaner wax and you should be good to go. i'm sure the zaino following will chime in here shortly. :rolleyes:

I still haven't seen one of these "Zaino" cars yet but I'll tell you this, not trying to sound like a jerk, but my silver SVT looks GREAT and I use Mequiers products...period The Hi-Tech yellow wax is $10.99, the cleaner wax is about $4.99 and the polish is about $6.99. I'm still waiting for someone to bring me one of the Zaino cars and show me, side to side, with my car the difference.

I swear by Duragloss 901, available at CarQuest stores. Their Clear Coated wheel cleaner is also the best for removing heavy grime.
