Seems to work pretty well and doesn't leave water spots. However, my stripes do have spots which seems to be a common problem on the 2007 SGTs. I'll likely get them replaced before the warranty expires. -yellow pony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rnoggle Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 What brand soap do you recommend that is good for the car and the vinyl stripes. I use Meguiers soap. Comes in a pink bottle at your local auto parts store or Wal-Mart. I've been very satisfied with it. I only use Adams polishing products, but I've had no problems with Meguiers soap so I stick with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffIsHereToo Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 I have washed my car maybe 5 times in two years. Before I pull out of the garage I wipe it down with detail, when I get back home, I wipe it down with detail spray. Two years and 15K miles and it looks great, won another trophy this weekend, of course it was 3rd place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dig-It Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 I've heard nothing but good things about Adams, and I've seen a few cars with their polish/wax too. I've been thinking about using it next time I clean up my SGT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HORSBYT Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 I use Dawn dishwashing liquid. Dawn removes grease (and road grime) right out of your way. I highly recommend Car Show's detail products from here. His detail spray is phenomenal and especially when used with his polish/glaze/wax. You've seen my car so there ya go!

427 Cammer Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Adams polishing system, great stuff and easy to use, also lots of videos if your not sure how to use something. Mostly see used with black or dark color paint. Swirl and Haze remover is great too. Phil Williamsport, Pa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
