Hello everyone,

This is my second post and I want to tell you that I love this site. However I've been doing a lot of reading that now I don't know what product to get. I need your assistance bad. As some of you know I just purchased a new black 2013 Acura TSX which I plan maintain keep it looking clean. I also owned a 2007 Toyota Sequoia which is in need of a major detailing job, has lots of swirls. So I need your help in deciding what to get, like a comple list of interior and exterior prodcuts. I would greatly appreacite it if you post your product recommendations.

Like I said there just to much information in here for me to decide what to get.

Thanks,

TundraPowe, thank your recommendation but I'm new to this and I don't know all the accronyms mean. So can you tell me who makes 22PLE?

I forgot about that coating, excellent suggestion. I am going to be getting some of that also.

22PLE is a coating, sorta like Opti-Coat. Has amazing reflections!
 
The car's new. I can't imagine it needs anything more than Menzerna PF4500 (very fine polish) and a polishing pad or at most a light cutting pad. I also have a black 2013 vehicle with swirls on all of the paint after a not so competent detailer washed it and the Menzerna PF4500 was perfect.

You might also want to get a fine clay bar, IronX, and a nice sealant such as Blackfire Wet Diamond or Menzerna Power Lock. And don't forget the standard car washing equipment such as a wash mitt, grit guard and good car wash liquid.
 
add a clay bar, but I would definately get a permanent coating on there, I have a honda and this paint is soft

It's pretty much in line with c quartz and opti-coat......

Appearance and durability of 22PLE is off the charts. At a cost of roughly $60 per application it's a steal. It has overtaken Chemical Guys E-Zyme Natura as my #1 seller.
