Are these products any good

STiSpecC · 03-12-2007, 06:58 PM

I just recently bought some maintenance products.

1) Microfiber Sponge
2) Meguiar's PlastX (for plastic parts)
3) Meguiar's Quik Detailer (for the paint)
4) Meguiar's Quik Out (Carpet Stain Remover)
5) ArmorAll Original Protectant (Interior dash and trim)

Has anyone used these products? Are these products any good?

The microfiber cloths are by the Microfiber brand. Is that a reputable company?

anything micorfibre is amazing, I use them in my shop daily!! I personally buy them in bulk at sam's club, they come in a bag with a STi on the package

for about $20cdn.

meguiar's make great retail products, I personally would stay away from ARMORALL products, most of their interior dressings are silicone based and are extremely shiny, just not my preferance.

Nothing beats the 303 line for interior detailing, IMO. Nice rejuvenated and matte finish.

I always recommend Ardex. That is the absolute best cleaner I've ever used! Its a little pricey but definitely worth it if the retail cleaners won't do the trick.

The stuff you got is some good stuff too. The Quik Detailer is great for a nice shine in between waxing. I use that stuff religiously. I personally don't like microfiber sponges for the exterior, but if you need to do some interior cleaning they work pretty well on things like soda and coffee. The ArmorAll makes the dash pretty shiny, but it lasts a pretty long time. It all depends on how you want everything to look. I haven't tried out the Meguiar's carpet cleaner yet tho.

I use Zaino products for the paint -- Meguiar's make a nice interior quick detailer which leaves a matte finish which I prefer.
