Surf City Garage products, what are your favorites/must haves?
I'm thinking to try a couple/few?
 
I've read that the glass cleaner is great. I've used only the soap, it's actually nice and it feels like Poorboy's to me. I don't notice any difference in slickness and foaming ability when compared to Poorboy's. I can't say much about the cleaning ability because my car wasn't very dirty.
 
glass cleaner is the TITS! other must haves IMHO are liquid carnuba[reminds me of nattys without the hassle of paste],tire shine,leather rejuv and the QD with wax was impressive to say the least.the dash away,wheel cleaner and wash soap are very nice products also ,would buy them again but wouldnt consider them must haves!

I'll say it again........the glass cleaner is amazing! One of the best I've used. The wheel cleaner is decent too. Their wax gave some nice depth and so far, good durability.

I have their glaze to try also. I might use it today on a black M3.
 
It's my go-to glass cleaner now, even over Stoner's IG. The soap works well, and it's cheap. The Killer Chrome seems to do ok, but to me it's no better or worse than a similar product, like Mother's.
 
I don't know if I would go as far as saying that its a "must have", but I tried the Killer Chrome Polish, and it certainly out performed the mothers chrome polish( all I have to compare to) and will be the polish I use from now on for my rims. It left my wheels looking the best they ever have. Only drawback to me is that it is very watery, so I felt like I was going to use the whole bottle on one wheel, but on the contrary, a little went a long way, and I cant even count it as a complaint anymore, just something to get used to and be careful about.
 
So the glass cleaner is much better than "Invisible Glass"?
 
The two that I'm going to try based on reviews on AG are the glass cleaner and the grime destroyer.
 
Like everyone else has said, their glass cleaner is awesome. You can use it on hot glass and not one streak. Their grime destroyer is just as good. Im also a fan of the nano glaze and im going to try out their nano sealant today on my new car.

Quik shot of the glaze in action, adds a lot of depth. The car was just washed then topped with nano glaze.

Road grime destroyer is the only i have tryed yet, but that was a WOW imo
 
1. Glass Cleaner is the best out there, even over my previous favorite Stoner's.

2. Beyond Black Tire Pro is awesome especially if you want the tires to enhance the vehicle and not take away from it.

3. Beyond Steel Wheel Cleaner is my new favorite wheel cleaner.

4. Nano Seal is a very very good sealant.

5. Used Great Barrier Reef Wax only once but really liked it same with the Leather Rejuvenator only used once but liked the results very much like Wolfgang Leather Conditioner but cheaper.
 
  1. Glass Cleaner.. I've done 4 cars with this stuff and I loook forward to it every time
  2. Grime destoyer is awesome... I've used it on medium and low grime before I foam it.
  3. Beyond Steel wheel cleaner is really good stuff... I think it works a little bit better than the ARO that I have been using...It really pulls dirt out of the tires very well. and quick.
  4. Speed Demon... I used this on a freshly washed vehicle today while drying and it was really slick for a QD.
I really am excited to try out nano seal...
 
what do you guys thinking of voodoo leather conditioner? Is it close to Duragloss, or thicker like Four Star, Wolfgang?
 
I just used the Grime Destroyer yesterday on bugs from the highway and I didn't even have to wipe them off, they just came off with the water. Stuff works great!

So now I like the glass cleaner, grime destroyer, and car wash.
 
The tire dessing is very nice. It leaves a deep black finish and waterbased. However, a small bottle of it (8 oz) is not very economical.
 
OK - I just used the Killer Chrome polish again and will have to revise my previous statement - it works very well, and even though it it thin I can see the bottle lasting me a long, long time.
