Want to detail my new Taco....Whats available???

Hey,

I just bought myself a new Tacoma TRD DC/LB. It's the new Magnetic Grey Color. I would like to know what is the best thing to do with the trucks paint to make it last and shine. I've read the How to's published by PB. Thanks very much!
The only thing is, I am from Eastern Canada, Newfoundland actually. I don't think any of those cleaners(griots,adams) are available in my area. Are there any cleaners in say Wal-Mart, Canadian Tire, or similar that are worthy as well.I just recently bought maguairs car wash, I don't see anything great about it........... I am gonna be in St.Louis for work next week I'll see if I can buy some of this stuff there.Does anyone know any dealers in St.Louis??????? I hate to buy on-line as I will end up paying more for the shipping then the actual product.

Also where I live they use salt on the roads, as well we get quite a bit of snow. So I would like the best protector for the paint I could get.

Thanks very much!

King

Mothers and Meguiars are quality name brands. Armor all stuff isn't that great.

Yeah, any product from Mother's or Meguiars will work fine.

avoid armor all for the dash. It'll cause it to crack more then if you left it alone. Armor All for the tires though is good. Black Magic makes a good dash protection spray
