Overall I really dig Maguiar's stuff. Costs a little more but nice results!

I have tried Croftgate and love it !!!! A friend of mine is a distributor of these fine products ... His name John Pryor ....
Croftgate USA products have no silicone in them!! The tire shine doesn't sling off and you can use it inside and out!!
I've had good luck with Meguairs stuff also.
I won a bottle of Meguiar's leather, vinyl, rubber detail spray as a car show door prize and was impressed at the results on my dash, seats, console, rubber and tires.
It is not too shiny or slippery for tires and boy does it smell good inside the car.
I have had good results with Meguiar's gold paste wax as it goes on and comes off easily and looks good.
Their clay bar/ detail spray kits are pricey but worth it.
I do need suggestions on what you guys like to use with your orbital buffers when it comes to light scratches and final polish.
I have heard most of the pro's endorsing 3m products...what say you?
Finally got a cheap orbital buffer from advance and used Meguire's #7 show car glaze and finished it off with # 26 high tech yellow wax and the end result was the best I've ever been able to get it.
I was going to try the # 34? something final inspection but it was like $30 something dollars and only came in a gallon jug but I'm real pleased with the results as I've never been able to get the color this deep and get rid of the light scratches until now.
Don't know if it's the product or the fact that I used the orbital buffer, or both.
Here's the final finish.

As I am appraising vehicles, many folks ask me what the future holds. I tell here what I tell them. So often I am too close to the "real metal" to have much of a crystal ball and its not my stength, anyway. However, when I stand back and do the research, sometimes a cloudy picture does come through. It seems to me that the last…
