So i've spent nearly the whole week cleaning my car. Took most of the interior apart, vacuumed/shampooed, dusted, etc. This part's easy. The stuff I used on the exterior has really amazed me though, and as soon as I get pics up, I'll show y'all the finished product. I started with a good wash (Meguiar's 'NXT Generation Concentrated Car Wash' & sponge), then used a Mothers 'California Gold' clay bar kit, & a finish coat of Meguiars 'NXT-Gen. Tech Wax'. If you guys have never used a clay bar kit, I highly recomened it. It left all the painted surfaces, "glass"-smooth. Also, I used a trick I found here for the stainless window moldings, which was 'Mothers mag Polish'. Then comes the absolute best... anyone who owns a DX should have some of this stuff. Its called Meguiars 'Trim Detailer', and it does some wonderful things to the Black trim (which mine is almost half of). When I got my car the previous two owners had never treated the moldings (side) or bumpers, and I bought this stuff on a whim, sayin' "sure, what the hell..." Also, if you wax your car regullarly, and can't seem to get through it with out getting wax on the door moldings... don't worry the Meguiars 'Clear Plastic Cleaner/Polish' takes it right off once its dry.

TypeG is going to go into convulsions when he sees the Meguiar's/Mothers mixed-up reppin' going on... lol
I thought about getting the Tech Wax for my ride but I'm not sure if waxing is even a good idea, the paint needs to be touched up bad. -

Don't worry about TypeG.
He's good, but whatever works and doesn't break the bank is cool.
Props to you, and get some pics up man.
