Car care products you wish you never purchased
I like trying out new products like waxes, cleaners, and polishes, but there are some that I just don't like and don't continue using.
Some products I wish I never spent my money on:
NXT protectant. Thought it would be great for the interior and top. Smells good, but attracts dust and smears when it rains. I'm a cheap bastard and refuse to throw it out, so I've delegated it for use as a tire dressing.
Honda Cleaner and Polish. I've used it mostly as a glass cleaner. I believe the directions should be changed to say, "spray surface. Wipe. Wipe. Wipe. Wipe. Think you're done wiping? Not quite. Wipe some more."

Zaino ... Just kidding!
1) Einszett Express Polish, Glanz Wax, and Metallic Polish. Anumber of Autopian love einszett products but I ended up dumping them.
2) NXT wax ... I just did not like it

Megeuir's leather whatever. Smells bad and makes the leather sticky.
Cheap microfiber cloths.
Any wax with cleaner.
Any oil based vinyl protectant (common trade name suppressed to protect the guilty).
I had a huge box of stuff I would never use that I had my son give away at the local ricer lot. He made a lot of friends...

ok any megeuirs stuff licks ass....... if i could go back to when i bought them i would kick my own balls before i did.
I've been into detailing a long time and i find their professional line to be the best and most complete line out there.
#16 is a great wax.
#81, #82 and #83 are awesome polishes
Final Detail is my favorite quick detailer... hands down.
