To all PPW Z owners,

What sampoo or other cleaner do u guys wash on your PPW Z?
I find that white is just hard to always keep it clean. I can notify tiny dots of dirt on the surface that can't easily be removed. Do you use clay bars or sth when you bath your Z?

 

Just regular car soap. Common problem areas:

Low on the sides behind the front tires. A bug-tar remover such as Blue Magic Gel works well.

Black spots on rear bumper. Aftermarket exhaust blows a lot of garbage on the rear bumper. A one-step wax such as Prestone works well.

 

I use Meguiar's car wash soap. It seems to get out dirt and spots really well.

I get these tiny dots all over my PPW, can't even see them from three feet away and they don't come off with just soap and water.

Three weeks ago or so, after washing the car on Friday and it being dirty by Monday with who knows what, I finally bought a Nissan car cover (used from another member) based on the recommendations from the car cover thread and gave the whole car the once over.

Washed it with maguiars wash, then did a cleaning wax, polish wax, regular wax and started covering it both at home and at work. A few days ago, I decided it was time to wash the cover and did the car at the same time. Worked out great, the car was still so clean it was more like a rinse and detail session. The cover meanwhile turned the water in the machine nearly black.

At this point I am sold on the cover.

I do wash with normal soap and i wax it w/ Meguiar's step 1,2,3. it hardly can take off those tiny dots. now, my car is a weekend car. parked at garage everyday. I'm just hope in the long run, it won't get yellowish or has tons of tiny dots that i couldn't remove. because my father used to have a white car and that's what happen to it....!

However, I still LOVE my PPW Z.


There are many products for Meguiar's car wash.
Which one do u guys use?

 

If it doesn't work then don't use it. I recommend:

Black magic BM48016

Turtle Wax T-6

Eagle One Nanowax

 

I heard that NXT by meguiar's is really good. A friend of mine recommended it to me because he told me that it left his car with mirror finish.
