Products for rain?
Hey guys, I live in Seattle and it's raining all the time here!
I need some recommendations on products for this weather, mainly to repel water and keeps the body shiny. I live in an apartment and don't have the space to wash my car entirely, so I'm looking for something that as easy as spray and wipe!! Thank you all~ |
A long lasting wax( I like Meguiars NXT 2.0) It will leave water spots if rain has dried on it, but some quick detailer will take care of that!
|
for glass, get Aquapel. the best stuff on earth, kills rainx. i treated my windows over a year ago and it still beads up water.
|
interesting. ive been happy with my rain-x. gotta try this aquapel then
|
I have quite a few aquapel applicators in my garage.:evil_laug
It works very well. Rainx SUCKS!!!! |
Oh and to the OP all you do is wash the windows then its as easy as wipe and wipe!
|
Well what I do is fully wax the car with [insert fav. wax here] then personally I use Zaino Z6 to maintain that glossy appearance until the next wash. I also use Zaino wax. This wax will bead water on your car for over 6 months. Zaino is the shiiiiit.

Will defly try the aquapel for the glass. How about the body? What do you guys think about the Turtle Ice (spray) and does it help with the rain?

Turtle Ice does not come in spray, the spray is actually Ice Detailer, so doesn't help with rain, only for keeping car clean between wash.
Meguiar's Ultimate Detailer however has hydrophobic formula in there to keep finish clean in rain, but again, no sub for good wax. They now have Ultimate Quik Wax in the 2009 line up with the hydrophobic formula. |
Any QD product is ok for in between cleans, but you want a solid sealant and wax first so it all lasts longer. I personally use PoorBoys EX-P (http://www.poorboysworld.com/exp.htm) followed up with Natty's Paste Wax blue (http://www.poorboysworld.com/natty-blue.htm)
All the other synthetic products are ok, they simply do not last as long. |
DO NOT USE ICE. ICE IS GARBAGEEEEE haha
|
Thx for all the replies, I'll try them out tmr hehe.
