As of right now, I am using Meguiar's Natural Shine, and while I do like it, I have heard rumors that some products will fog up the inside of the windows, and I notice that they do infact fog up (I hate dealing with glass). I have no problem with constant application of the product every week, but it must last at least 1 week and provide ample UV protection and prevent fogging. I know that with age, plastics and vinyl will cause this, however I was hoping there is a product that will stop this from happening

Right now, I am highly considering Meguiar's Hyper-Dressing, however I have no idea how much UV protection it provides, if any. What does appeal me to is is the variable dilution rate, and the fact that it is water based, so I was hoping it might not cause fogging.

My other consideration was to use Gold Class Trim Detailer on both inside and out, as I have heard fantastic things about this product in its ability to protect and rejuvenate, but this leads me to the worry of fogging up the windows faster with it.

The car is garaged at night when I am home, however it is out in the sun from 8am to 7pm every day in Southern California sun. I have tried RainX anti-fog for the interior, but it doesn't seem to do a thing and is a PITA to apply. That, or some genius way of cleaning the glass may also help! I just bought Micro-rejuvenator so my towels should at their best (they are crap right now) when I get that in the mail, and I use Meguiar's Glass Cleaner Concentrate, which I just absolutely love...when the microfibers aren't all clogged up.
 
For interior I highly recommend Poorboy's World Natural Look. Gor exterior trim I like PB Trim Restorer and/or 303.

I forgot to mention the other big part of me asking is that I am looking for something more economical and cut down on the number of products I need.

I was just informed that it is not the product that causes the fogging, and that it was just a rumor. So right now, I am looking for something that will help slow down, or even stop the process while keeping the richest look possible (matte with just a little shine). Right now, I am considering M40 as I know it does slow down the process, however if Hyper Dressing will accomplish this, I would be extatic as I could have one product for the engine bay, wheels, trim, and interior.

As of right now, I am using Natural Shine for trim/interior/engine and Hot Shine Endurance for tires. My goal is to narrow this down to 1 product, or 2 more economical products.

I know i dont have that many posts but i use 1z vinyl and rubber care and also 303. I like 1z better because it has a nice scent and has a matte shine. I also use it on my tires as well.

The quantity of your posts mean little to most folks here, but your input is always welcome. Who makes the "1Z" that you mention?
 
So far, it seems I will be using M40 for the interior, and either Hyper-Dressing or ASD for the outside. If anyone has any recomendations on other products and have experience with M40, HD, or ASD, please chime in!
 
Ive found that optimum protectant works best on my interior vinyl/plastic, and 303 works best on my exterior trim.

Ive tried Lexol vinylex, didnt care for it much.
 
1Z Cockpit Premium is the best I've ever tried. It leaves a matte finish, no greasy at all, no residue, and it smells great! Great stuff! :cheers:
 
I suppose I could always opt out for some Zxilon treatment from the dealer (roflmao) :p

Seriously though, I can't wait to get my rotary for Christmas and do a side by side comparison of this snake oil, NXT 2.0, and M7+M26 for laughs :)
 
I have been using DP interior Protectant and love the shine. I would like to find something with a nice scent. DP's old formula was not pleasant at all. The new formula has a nice bananna scent. Ot does not last very long. What is Poorboys Natural Look scent?
