are you talking about the inside or outside of the vehicle?

for the stuff inside the car, i use a plastic cleaner type product from meguiars. its like 5-6$, but worth it. it cleans interior surfaces instead of just covering them with shiny goo.

I used to use Lexol also, before I became a professional detailer, once I got my hands on professional grade, their was no turning back, their is nothing wrong with Lexol don't get me wrong, its a fine over the counter product. The only way I can explain it is imagion a tradesman, and ask him where he buys his toolds, its not K-Mart, Gary

Just because a product is "over-the-counter," doesn't make it any less effective than what a "professional" offers. I happen to know that the Lexol products are ph balanced, and that's the MAIN thing to keep in mind when using it on vinyl, leather, and rubber, unlike SOME products which aren't.

Stan... I think you know the answer, so that must have been a retorical question! LOL

It used to be "Gary" himself, but now it's "Kevin" who has the shop and the products without change. His/The "Ultimate Dressing" is what I've been using for more than a year now.
