:wavey: Hi!

I was just curious :confused: as to what suds and wax other NITRO owners use to

clean their Nitros. Especially up here in frigid Canada .......

I'm getting real tired of having to chase "Spots" after I wash my NITRO! :smiledown:

My shammies are wearing out! LOL! :4-jump2:

Any suggestions on a wax that does not require hours of elbow grease? :i_rolleyes:

Also, what can I put on 20" Rims to keep them sparkling & spotless?:4-sunshine:

I'm using the Maguiers stuff for the leather seats, but the rest .........:SHOCKED:

Maybe I'm just basically lazy ..... :Na_Na_Na_Na:, hope to get some input ....

THANKS!

:feedback:​

I use Meguiers Gold class wash and wax and dry with terry cloth towels I find the wax lasts longer than with a shammie too, The wheels the Mothers power ball works well, HighVoltage did a how to on the 20s with the power ball. have heard good things about the Mr Clean wash system too.

If I'm in a hurry I just use a touchless car wash or self serve power wash and then chamois dry by hand but if I have time it's a hand wash, chamois dry and finish off with the Ice Wax. Some say it doesn't last too long, but I like it because it wont leave residue on the plastic fenders and other bits.

good 'ole elbow grease every weekend.....I love Mequiers, wax, polish and the quick detailer. I have not tried anything else, but I hear the black ice stuff is good.

I wash at a self serve power-wash, going light on the soap cycle, then I finish with the spot-free rinse (treated water). I used the Turtle Wax Ice wax because of the black fenders on my SXT, no white residue. Finished up with the Ice Detailer spray, nice touch! Now after I wash at the power-wash, I just spray with the detailer and it's an easy shine. :smileup: I've always been too lazy to hand dry, plus I don't want to scratch the paint.
