Try the 501 cleaner/polish (Marine version) prior to the 105. The 501 is an incredible cleaner, and even on it's own it holds up very well. Top it with the 105, and you've got a LOT of protection, and nice looks.

From what I've read in these forums, a good 5W-20 oil will hold up quite well. Why not stick with the recommendation... at least during the warranty period. I guess if I lived in an extreme heat situation, I might consider a 5W-30.

Locally, 303 Protectant or Mothers Protectant would be my choice. Personally, I use Detailers Pride Interior Protectant.

It's a very good cleaner wax. Top it with Mothers California Gold Carnauba for extra "POP" and protection.

Do you have a buffer of any type?

I have a number of Mothers products... all are very good! I particularly like the Reflections Line. Power Polish is also excellent. Pre Wax Cleaner works great, and can be used as a nice finishing polish.

I agree. Synwax is good stuff. Easy on, easy off, with a nice shine. However, I actually prefer Reflections... depending on the color. Now that I've tried NXT 2.0, I prefer it to both the Mothers products, as far as looks and durability. Come spring, I'm going to prep the paint well, apply NXT...

Originally Posted By: Pablo I use it, and don't hate it, but sometimes it's a P-I-T-A with all the updates, and the pickiness. It doesn't work with PANDORA, yet doesn't tell you it's blocking it either. Yep, sometimes its a "REAL P-I-T-A"! I usually turn it off unless I'm going to some new sites.

I've tried the new NXT 2.0 on my sons vehicle. I like it much better than the original. Easier to apply and remove, nicer shine, and seems to be holding up nicely. Although, it's only been 3 weeks since we applied two light coats. The Meguiar's UQD (Ultimate Quick Detailer) works extremely well...

Somewhere, I've seen "curved" magnets made for specific size filters. I'll look around and see if I can find the info. I've always thought they were a gimmick. Anybody think they are worth it?

I like the article... "hundreds of fixes"! That's why my next PC will be a Mac.
