Good Products to clean your car by Bruce Drago



Bruce Drago
There are countless product lines available for car detailing. There are a few that appear as leading brands suitable for the home user. I will describe a few of the more popular brands, while no doubt excluding some brands that others will argue deserve mention. As one professional told me, "It's like toothpaste. It doesn't matter particularly which brand you pick, just brush daily."

Car detailing has become a chemistry experiment with polymers applied a layer at a time. Consequently each layer applied to a surface interacts with the previously applied layer. For simplicity and minimal problems I recommend you pick a brand and stick with it for all your detailing needs on a particular surface. This is especially true for the polish, sealant, wax, and maintenance phases. So that means you will probably be ok mixing brands for the car wash, clay and clay lubrication phases.

For exterior detailing the brand I recommend most highly, is Jeff's Werkstatt. Many, but not all would agree, but few would consider it a poor product. Some people complain that Jeff's can be a difficult product to apply properly. Everyone mentions that a little bit goes a long way, so apply the amount specified in the instructions. With proper maintenance a Jeff's based paint detail may last as long as a year. I prefer it since with expert application it should last the longest with an excellent visual result.
