I recently tried a couple of products made by Surf City Garage. Their tire black is awesome. Just black... No shine. I liked the tire spray so much, I bought their Just Dashes, a general interior cleaning spray and their leather conditioner. Happy with that as well. I still like Mothers for most of my other stuff.

I think its called Dash Away unless they changed the name. Great cleaner and has many uses. Good to know about the tire protectant and leather conditioner. I think their BEST product is Grime Destroyer. Citrus based/precleaner for bugs and tar. I didn't care for their shampoo since its really not that concentrated and doesn't sheet after rinsing.

Mostly, wax while you dry and paint detail type products as this is about all I use after washing each time(my own vehicles). I do have some different waxes around and only use them once in a while and only on the top portions of the vehicles(hood, roof & trunk). With 4 cars in the family, I'm always cleaning one of them. And once in a while I'll take on a Detail Job. Have done detailing for over 35 years and I'm not doing much of it these days, just now & again. It's alot of work!
Products are:
ArmorAll
BlackMagic(silicone waxes) and products as mentioned above
BlueCoral
Bondo Back-to-Black(and I have used BONDO for body repairs too!)
Detailer's Choice(carnuba)
DuPont(compounds)
EagleOne
Meguiar's
Mothers
3M
TurtleWax
YellowWax
Zymol
Agree with Char Baby..
I use all kinds of different brands.
Here is a quick rundown..
Overall favorite brand is probably EagleOne.
I love their Wax-As-U-Dry, and Carwash in a bottle products.
I love TurtleWax ZipWax as well.
Meguiar's gold class tire dress is my favorite when I'm in the mood to do it (normally just prefer "clean" tires)
3M polish and claybar are the cats meow.
Of all of this though, the products I use most are the EagleOne products.
The Wax-As-U-Dry can be used at a U-wash and therefore I use it all year long even in the winter when its not too cold out.

I'm afraid to know how much I've spent over the years in care products...
I like meguiars, cleaner wax is a great one step product for a weathered finish like mine, their protectants are great, and I've had great luck with the ultimate quick wax spray wax. They also have good car washes.
Offhand I'd have to say Turtle Wax brand products. I like TW a lot for my car and bike, and I now have TL brand tire shine and I like it. Their stuff is inexpensive and does everything I feel it should. I see no reason to spend more for these products.
mothers, kind of suprised not many people said mothers
I use mostly Meguiars, although I have some stuff from a couple of other companies.
