    I use Meguiars. However, I may have to try the 'blood of virgins and tails of unicorns' route. :rofl:

    Wax Daddy formula 113..... Does paint, plastics, and glass and leaves no residue or dull finish on plastic or glass. This stuff is far better than any over the counter product. It's around $30 a bottle, but if ordered in bulk its much cheaper!

    It's not new, it's not Mexico
    Nu Finish. Fairly easy to apply & buff off. Lasts as long as any other product I've tried. But man, don't get it on the black plastic parts, 'cause then yer out there with the WD-40 and a toothbrush.
