A good inexpensive way to take wax off the black plastic is peanut butter

Original Armour All works just as good . Most people don't know how to use Armour All .

The proper way to use Armour All is to apply with clean new cloth , wipe off with different cloth , and then buff with yet another (clean ) cloth .

You only need a few thing to keep your car looking new .

1. Armour all . To keep all rubber and plastic ( inside and out ) hydrated .
2. A good wax ( I prefer Meguiar's Gold Class or Tech 2.0 )
3. Stoner invisible glass
4. Rain-x
5. If your like me , a can of flat black paint to keep the muffler looking good . Nothing says ugly more than a rusted muffler .

Some people use clay bars , but I found that a guitar pick ( plastic , .73 mm , Tortex brand ) works just good and is way cheaper ($.50)

A better way to keep wax off the plastic is Armour All the plastic before you wax . The wax won't stick to the Armour All

Meguiars is a good product,i use the wet look and glod class,when polishing with Meguiars u need to finish up with gold class to seal the polish, the stratch X work wonders on those swirl marks,now u see it now u dont, but then u need to apply the gold class, the polish for chrome is like a paste that come in a red tin, that make your polish dish mags shine like new, once again apply gold class,

and if u wash the car they way they say u must, it works, but it takes to long to do, and u need to change water to many times if the car is really dirty,
