I just recently purchased a 2012 Nissan Rogue SL AWD. It came with black leather seats and 18" aluminum alloy rims. The car is in great condition both exterior and interior. This week I really want to give it a good cleaning. I'm looking to purchase most of my things over the counter and avoids doing online orders. Any advice regarding to products to use will be greatly appreciated. As far as exterior, I'm going with Meguiar's products. I've used them and pretty much like them the best for over the counter products.
Exterior Body:
1.Going to get the Meguiar's clay bar kit
2. I don't really think I need the ultimate compound being that my paint is in good condition.
3. Going with the Meguiar's Ultimate polish and finish it off Ultimate liquid wax.
4. My trims aren't faded, but I wanted a product to give them a gloss. I know Meguiar's and Turtle wax sell products for this.
Tires and Wheels:
1. Should I go with a cleaner for the rims, and then a separate cleaner for the tires? If so any recommendations?
2. Should I go for an all in one? If so any recommendations.
3. I wanted to use the Meguiar's Brilliant Solutions Wheel Polishing Kit and seal it with the Hot Rim Break dust barrier. Any comments?
Interior:
1. As far as the leather seats, I saw that this site sold Lexol products which I can get at my local auto stores. Anyone have any experience with there products? Once again my leather seats are black. How often should leather seats be reconditioned?
2. As far as dash cleaning and dressing, how does Armoral stack up? I like a glossy dash, is there any over the counter that can achieve that without leaving a residue or damaging my dash? Should I go with a cleaner and then a separate protectant?
Once again any information you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
