    Prep trim before WETS?

    Alright, got some of the Awesome sauce from the dollar store. Not sure how much to dilute it though?

    Prep trim before WETS?

    Thanks. I Googled it and found it on the Dollar Tree website which tells me they sell it there. Just happens to be the closest one to me too. Sounds trivial but It takes me about 20 minutes to get to "town" so I would rather not drive around to each one of them if I don't have to lol. I wish it...

    Prep trim before WETS?

    Now when you guys say "The Dollar Store", are we talking about Dollar General, Family Dollar or Dollar Tree? I have them all here but are all kinda far apart.

    Prep trim before WETS?

    Hey buddy. You must have some 6th sense that alerts you when anything Xterra related is posted :D Yup, I am breaking out the Werner platform to work on the wet box and all the brackets up there. I draw the line at the INSIDE of the basket though lol. I know it will make a big difference and be...

    Prep trim before WETS?

    This is the only IPA I have and no way am I wasting it on my car :laughing: I think I will probably just make a trip to town to get some IPA and Mother's trim cleaner. Can you recommend an APC that I can buy locally as well? I'm not sure I'll be able to find anything worth buying but you guys...

    Prep trim before WETS?

    Hey guys. I'll be washing my Xterra today and want to apply WETS afterwards on my plastic bumpers/trim. I do not have a dedicated APC and wondered if I could just use Dawn dish soap to thoroughly wash those areas? Or maybe a mix of dawn and regular car wash soap? If it's not a good idea to do...

    Trim restorer/protectant for Xterra. LOTS of plastic.

    You're right. The old X did have even more plastic. Poor fella. I actually just read some reviews on the UTTG and some people are not liking the new formula as much as the old so I think I am going to pick up the wolfgang trim sealant instead. So tell me, does this stuff go a long way. Like...

    Trim restorer/protectant for Xterra. LOTS of plastic.

    Thanks so much for the input. I was hoping someone that actually had an Xterra would chime in. Did you use any kind of product on the trim when you had it? I really HATE the faded chalky look of all that plastic when it isn't taken care of. Thanks for the reply. I have heard about the UTTG...

    Trim restorer/protectant for Xterra. LOTS of plastic.

    Hey guys. I own a 2013 Nissan Xterra and I'm sure you all know how much black plastic is on the exterior of it. Front bumper, door trim, top of rear bumper, roof rack brackets, wind fairing, etc. It is only 2 years old so as of now all of the plastic is in good shape and not faded much if any. I...

    Incredibly Cheap Finds

    Found Eagle One chrome wheel cleaner for $.77 at my local Oreilly's. Bought 5 of them. I don't know how well it works yet but I couldn't pass it up.

    Coated my tires today and WOW,

    Just a heads up guys. I picked some up at my local Wally world tonight. It was $13 with a $3 off coupon right on the box. So $10.xx out the door. Can't wait to try it out and hopefully get the same results you guys are experiencing.
