    Best Tire Dressing?

    Yes, you can tone down the shine. Apply the product, let it sit for 10 min or so then wipe down with an old towel/rag. This will give a very nice look, even out the look and tone down the shine. I will also point you to this thread: http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/thread/1285.aspx You will...

    Dashboard "Duster"

    I have a small California car duster... it does in fact work well for the dash and interior. Great for a quick dusting! You still should apply some type of dressing from time to time for the UV protection.

    Wax over new car sealant?

    Use any wax over the dealers 'sealant' I too hope you didn't spend much on it. I know a guy who had Ford put their sealant on his black Escape and he has not waxed it in two year as the product stats there is no need to wax, well the truck is all swirled out and looks so-so at best he is...

    windshield washer fluid

    I have been using RainX deicer washer fluid for a month now and have been happy with it, I have yet to see any hazing but if it did I wouldn't be surprised. I does seem to leave a water repellent behind as of yet I have no complaints. I am also using RainX wiper blades.

    Cleaning with clay?

    I have used several clays all work well, only problem I see with using car wash soap and water with clay... the clay tends to fall apart many use water/soap combo I prefer a quik detailer with clay.

    They lit the car surface on fire

    Then they run their hand over the surface one the fire is out and point out the surface is cool (as if the wax protected it in some way). In reality its like you posted above.

    Tire Shine

    Well, I have used many tire dressings. I tend to stay in the Meguiars line some include: All Season Dressing, Gold Class Endurance , Gold Class Endurance High Gloss . I apply these products let it sit for 10 min or so then wipe off the excess with an old towel, this prevents the slinging.

    Be careful with tire dressings!

    I have used just about all of Meguiars Dressing and have had no problem with stains. To prevent the sling apply the product let it sit for 10min or so then wipe off the excess.

    NOT WAXING

    I agree! You need polish/wax and so on to protect from the environment. If you want the wax to last a little longer use a sealant either way IMO its a must! water, bird droppings and other contaminates can and will etch the paint. I will put my black truck(its only 2.5 years old ans waxed every...

    NOT WAXING

    I don't think it will 'diminish' the paint but IMO you should wax/polish a vehicles paint at least once a year to introduce polishing oils back into the paint and add a wax to protect it. It not scientific just my .02
