I have been buying wash tools, towels, and put together a good order from AutoGeek. Here is a review of the products I bought and used.
Well I did my first wash and wax on my new 2010 GMC Savana AWD. It went well over all as I was doing it for the first time and it is a big vehicle and i use a wheelchair and had some hurdles to over come as in reaching up to the top of the wall to put polish on and to get polish off.
I used Griot's Shampoo which was OK nothing special. I couldn't really get it to suds. I poured 64oz bottles of hot water into a bucket and used a pressure washer at a nice new coin op place. I will buy the Meg's Gold Class next time I am @ Target. They have it for $6 for a jug. I doubt I will buy more Griot's.
I used a Target MF mitt and never got to my new Mother's Lambswool mitt!! I will try it next time. The Target orange MF mitt did just fine.
I used these Walmart extension MF washing poles that worked great for up high which is out of reach. They extend and are made of nice MF. To polish off the Klass I put a Walmart MF towel over them and they buffed off the Klasse very easily.
To apply KAIO up high I used a Walmart sponge mop with a Rejuvenate MF bonnet over the sponge. It worked very well. The Klasse AIO is outstanding. It goes on easy and off easy. I applied it where I could reach with a Walmart sponge Micro fiber applicator which worked OK. The Klasse AIO is great. I will definitely buy more. I didn't get around to the Klasse Sealant Glaze i bought or the Finish Kare 1000P. I will use the Klasse SG after the next wash in a few weeks.
I used Poor Boys Wheel Sealant which was vying for star of the show against the KAIO. The PB WS was very nice stuff. It smells like bubble gum. It goes on real easy with a MF applicator and comes off real easy with a MF towel. I really like it and will buy more.
I did the windows with the Stoners Reach and Clean tool and the aerosol Stoners Glass Cleaner. Excellent Products. The van has a deep diving dash that is impossible to reach. This spray cleaner and tool KICK ASS on windows. I highly recommend this combo. The cleaner works great with little to no streaking and really cleans glass. The tool also gets the job done getting into those nooks and crannies that you can't reach.
For drying the vehicle the Cobra Waffle Weave MF towel combo was fantastic! I never got to the littler one as the big one soaked up an entire van. It dried the van and was still dry and didn't even need to be rung out. Amazing towel. For washing a nice MF wash mitt from Target which did great. It rinsed easy and left a lot of dirt at the bottom of my rinse bucket. For polishing I used Target and Walmart MF towels which are of the highest quality at a lower price. They worked great and are soooooo soft and plush. They can't be beat. They buffed off the Klasse AIO with ease and really brought out the shine. I used an OTC target MF towel to polish off the Poorboy's Wheel Sealant. It was a nice orange on one side gray on the other small MF towel. I used the soft plush orange side on my chrome ATCX Assaults. They really removed and polished great, next time I will try the gray side.
Oh yeah I almost forgot the 303!!! This product stole the show beating out the KAIO and the PB WS. I have chrome bumpers on the van with the black plastic tops they put on front and back. I have a few week old vehicloe that I park outside in a carport and those black plastic bumper tops get the sun. No way you can help it. That GM plastixc turns white real fast once it dries out and that seems to be a matter of weeks. I used the 303 and a porous small 2" sponge. I did my WHOLE DAMN VEHICLE with this stuff. Bumpers, Dash, Doors, plastic trim on the side and rear cargo doors, all over. It is a long job but the dash alone was worth it. I LOVE THIS STUFF!!!!!. IF YOU HAVE PLASTIC and want it to be UV protected and shine then get this 303. Spray on wipe off. Rub it around a little. Goes on easy and really enhances the appearance of plastic. And there is A LOT of plastic on pickups and vans, suv's. I find that waxing the paint doesn't even get this Savana to look good unless the plastic is hit with the 303. Then the vehicle looks outstanding. I highly recommend it especially with anyone thatr has a GM pickup, van or SUV with the black plastic on your bumpers.....that are likely turning dull white. Even if you don't.... get this 303 for your plastic anywhere. I use it on plastic kayak float bags, flylines, wiper blades, door handles, flylines all kinds of uses.
