ok what products/brands would you reccomend over the counter for non-filler polish, sealer and wax? We have mothers, meguires, blue coral and the like here on the shelves, any other common stuff you know about?

Can't name any true polishes that you can find over the counter...needs to be ordered online.

OTC wax:Gold Class or NXT.

Wow, very nice write-up. I am very impressed. I thought I knew it all, until I read this. I will definately be changing my ways of detailing.

I'd love to leave here to aviod the snow as well...but 4 seasons means more fun with an Evo.

EVOL EDO, Rice Kind said it for me. I said how to remove just those things on page one...read a bit more attentively or use the find option in Word to find those words in the document.
