In bed with your wife
I went to AutoZone to get some wheel cleaner and walked out with a few extras. They had a 'Buy 2, Get 1 Free" offer on Meguiar HotShine products so i took advantage of that ;)

I thought I'd try out a new mitt too. It's a Viking MF. And, I got some wheel brushes.

I spent 28 bucks (and some change) total. Could I have done better buying from the internet?


What are the general thoughts of the products shown? Don't be shy, be honest ;)

 
I tend to believe that you don't have to spend a ton of money on obscure products to obtain satisfactory results. I personally love Mother's and Meguiar's products...
Good find on the sale too!
 
I personally use the Meg's HOT Tire Shine Aerosol exclusively since i really like the results it gives and it's ease of application. I signed up to receive a free sample of the Hot Shine foam so i am hoping it does what it says. I have big mud tires and at car shows I have been using the No Touch Tire Foam on the knobby area and i hate the way it runs that milky white stuff. Supposedly the Hot Shine foam does not do this.

And it doesn't ;) I sprayed my Explorer tires and they turned out really nice. I think I need a second coat but that's just because they were not washed with soap and water first.
 
There are a lot of great products that are available in your local stores. The only product you bought I would think you might want to reconsider is the wash mitt. I can't tell for sure from the picture, but it doesn't look like it has that much knap. Short knap could trap dirt between the mitt and the paint causing micro marring.
 
Here ya go...I really think a washing them would have been better. maybe even letting the sun bake them would have been good too?

It's a microfiber mitt. Should it have any knapp?
