    This is what the chemical guys recommend for me. I just have a hard time with the price.

    Years ago, The guy that installed all my aftermarket stuff recommended it for my Tonneau cover. Applied it twice a year and it kept it always looking new. Good Stuff no matter what the cost truthfully.

    They're running a 30% off sale for Black Friday. https://www.chemicalguys.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=624
    Skip all of the stuff in the spray bottle, especially the clay lube. You can pick up Meguiars at any auto parts store.
    Black Light - Awesome!
    Jet Seal - Awesome!
    Hybrid V7 Quick Detailer - Awesome!
    I also highly recommend their Hybrid V7 soap or the Citrus Wash and Gloss. (V7 is pH balanced, Citrus Wash and Gloss isn't)
    Get the Lava Luminous Glow wax or Pete's 53 and you'll be very happy.

    Ok thank you for the advice and the info on the savings.

    What's you thoughts on the blitz just as a post wash. Or just stick to the v7?

    Can you explain to me how the v7 wash being ph balanced benefits?

    The V7 is more of a daily/weekly wash. The Citrus Wash and Gloss that is not pH balanced could strip wax over time, but they do say it's safe for wax. It makes an awesome shine on your vehicle, but I'm reading you can use it in high concentration to strip a previous protection layer before applying a new one. Hopefully that makes some sense.
    Here's the table on their site describing the different soaps.

    Stick with Hybrid V7. It produces a great, non-oily shine and also smells good. I'll say I use a wet side and a dry side of a microfiber towel. Spray it on the paint, wipe with the "wet side" then flip your towel and shine/buff with the "dry side." Again, hopefully I'm making sense.

    Ok thanks it does make sense. I will place my order friday. I will just order their clay bar also. Just so it all the same brand stuff.

    I'm going to try that 303 for the interior of the truck. I have seen great reviews on that and a lot of guys really like it.

    Check out your local boating place for 303.. I saw this advice on the forums and called a boating place and sure enough they had it.
