The vinyl top got a deep cleaning with Meguiar's APC+ and a bristle brush. There were many stains, and an overall layer of deep down dirt.

I was able to get most of it out:

The leather seats also got an all day deep cleaning with Leatherique.



The Rejuvenator Oil doing its magic pulling the dirt out of the leather and restoring suppleness.

After using the Pristine Clean to remove the dirt that the Rejuventator Oil pulled out:

The car was finished up with a layer of 303 Aerospace Protectant on the vinyl top and Meguiar's Yellow Tech Wax #26 on the paint.



Some after shots ... car got a little dirty on the roads to get there :wall

Subygirl,



Looks good, like the after shot in the field.



How do you like the Meg's #26 Tech Wax? I was looking at getting some and I went to a local car show this past Friday and Meguiar's had a tent setup there. They just happened to be selling this stuff by the gallon. I couldn't turn down the 50% off retail (got a gallon for $20 and this included the tax).



Also was able to pickup the 'twins' (105/205) for $22 each (quarts) and decided to try their Mild Clay for $20.

The #26 wax is a great OTC wax and even stands up to the ones you buy online. It gives a great slickness to the paint and adds a lot of depth to metallic paints. I would say it lasts around the 1.5 to 2 month mark. The 105/205 twins are great. I use them all the time. Sometimes I pair one or the other with a few polishes from Menzerna. I just did another miata this weekend (96 this time) and ended up using 105/SIP/PO87MC. I will be posting that full write up soon.
