Complete car care...
Ok...changing my post. Just to make it easy and save myself from time and confusion searching, what products do you recommend for:
Interior cleaning - leather cleaner, window cleaner, etc..
Exterior cleaning - soap, towels, wax, etc...
Wheels
Also, how do you wash the exterior of your car? Do you use two buckets, one for clean, soapy water and 1 to rinse the the dirt off in? What steps do you follow? Seems this car washing business is a little more complicated that I thought!
Thanks,
Bill

Interior:
- Leather Cleaner - I don't have leather, but you could try the Meguiars Leather Cleaner - I havent tried it before though
- Window Cleaner - Stoners Invisible Glass (Aerosol Can w/ Yellow cap) - OR - Meguiars NXT Glass Cleaner (I have not tried this yet but I have heard good things about it)
Exterior:
- Soap: Meguiars Gold Glass Soap or Meguiars NXT Car Wash Soap (A little more $ than Gold ClasS)
- Towels - A couple of microfiber towels -- Have at least 1 for drying, 1 for removing wax, 1 for touchups, and any more is up to you. I've used the FiberWorks Microfiber which is great.
- Wax: It all depends how much you want to spend. I have used Meguiar's Gold Class (LONG time ago), Meguiars NXT Tech Wax, TurboWax, and S100 Carnauba Wax. All great products (I would go w/ Meg's NXT or TurboWax)
- Wheels - I just use a rag and soapy water on my wheels.
You can use 2 buckets if you want but I usually use 1 bucket for the wheels and then another for the car.

On my dash I use 303 Aerospace. You can buy it online or at a local boating supply store. It acts as sunscreen for the car (interior) but its used on boats also.
