Care to share what products you used on everything? I've been meaning to detail the car, especially the inside. Any advice would be great El Tano!

Looks good man, real good .

I would suggest a better wax or a sealant. NXT works decent but it doesn't last long (at least when I used it).

Interior looks great, even with a kid in there!

Man, I might have to do that to my Infiniti one day. That car needs some detailing done. My mom parked the car under some pine tree and now there's three sap drops on the roof. And I tell her to be careful where she parks too

I also have some P21S and some Meguiar's #16 (amaizing but discontinued), I know you have some experience in detailing, I went to several open clases at Meguiar's and since they thought me how to use the products I get good results, but I'm open to better stuff, what would you suggest ??? I know there is some good stuff out there..

I drive my kid some mornings to the school(only 4 miles away) and that's it, most of the time we drive my beater or my wife's suv....

Thanks for the comments.
