Most Under Rated Product?

303 fabric protection. In my experience, one treatment lasts years eliminating chance of carpet staining from food drink and other stuff. Simply amazing...scotch guard on steroids.
 
I'll put in a vote for the Meguiar's Quick Detailer. Not the stuff in the Ultimate line, but the basic QD in the maroon bottle you get OTC for around $5 or find as part the clay bar kit.

The sprayer is great for putting down a fine mist and the product works amazing. The cheap price and universal availability is the added bonus.
 
not really under-rated (well, maybe since many use non otc spray waxes more often), but UQW is awesome. one of the best smelling products ever, is easy to use and with decent durability. also, mothers fx spray wax as well..
 
DG rinseless, both as a rinseless, but at 1:10 ratio (product to water) makes the most incredible detail spray I've ever used. Love their new coating as well.



Megs ultimate Quik wax very underrated. Works even at 40 degrees. Hydrophobic beading is extraordinarily good and is another over the counter must have.

Some people still clown on this machine here, even with all the positive reviews and low low price - you can buy 3 of these for the price of one gg6!
 
I know I posted in this already but PERL can't get talked about enough either. Great tire dressing that can be diluted and used all around and is good at all of its uses.
 
Not sure about "underrated", but I can tell you that I've been pleasantly surprised by the water repellency of the latest TW ICE paste wax formula. I have yet to see a product that has the surface tension properties for the price of this product and has the durability to maintain these properties as well throughout my own personal water testing. Not sure about long term surface tension durability yet, but the short term durability after wetting the surface of sealed surfaces for a period of 10-20 minutes, it's holding up it's surface tension the best so far compared to other waxes I've tested.

:iagree: 1) great price and even cheaper with a coupon which can be found in most car magazines and flyers. 2) more torque/power than the PCXP 3) pretty durable and haven't heard many failures or complaints and some run them day in & day out everyday for months 4) can be bought locally

:iagree: can be used every wash instead of using AW which IMO is overkill and still contains AW in it and is very slick...

:iagree: i've gone through several bottles (3) and i have a little less than half a bottle left and will have to pick up another when it's on sale. i've used the detailer line equivalent (suppose to be the same thing packaged in bulk) and for some strange reason it didn't feel/work the same when i used it a while back. maybe i got a bad batch, i dunno...
 
I agree with the DG rinseless with AW. It's a great product. Really all DG products are a great bang for your buck

The Ice Past, along with their Premium Grade Rubbing and Polishing Compounds.

I also like some of the Surf City Garage line. In particular, their Beyond Clay polish, Nano Seal paint sealant, and Barrier Reef liquid and paste waxes. I used them a lot earlier this summer.

surf city garage is improving their line while introducing new products. dylan who used to work for adams polishes now works for surf city (research & development IIRC) and i'm sure he'll be a great addition to the team. he has a write-up on DB with their products...
 
I got one to add................. Mothers Reflections Tire Care! It's my favorite at the moment. It provides a beautiful satin/matte, brand new look. Application is a breeze and durability has been comparable to Pinnacle Black Onyx Gel.
 
Surf City glass cleaner flat out works with zero streaking.
Pinnacle glass cleaner w/rain repellent also works great at cleaning with zero streaking.
Clearkote carnuaba moose wax never seemed to get the love it deserves imo, looks close to Souveran but with 3-4 month of durability.
 
For me the Meguiar's DUB line. I've used everything in it except the rim wax. It's pretty inexpensive, can be bought at a bunch of B&M stores, and it all works great. I cleaned a co-workers car yesterday and used the wheel cleaner, interior clean and shine & tire shine with great results. I can't honestly say any of them are my go-to products. But, for the price they're all high on my list and I'll probably keep all of them on hand as long as they're made.

And +++++ to Carpro's Spotless, I've only had to use it once so far, but when I did it was a LIFE SAVER. I had tried a bunch of things I thought up to get the water spots off my co-workers car with zero luck. So I ordered it, and it worked like magic. I'm sure there are other products that work well on water spots too, but this is the only one I've seen.

Turtle Wax rinseless, I love this stuff!

I agree, I also utilize their rinseless product as something that I can find over the counter for a decent price that I can use for clay dilution, spray detailer, or actual wash dilution. Now, they do recommend a 2oz per gallon wash dilution that I haven't been able to test yet compared to Optimum's blue formula rinseless wash solution, but it's something that I'm looking forward to testing. Since I'm using mostly 2.5 gallons of water per car I use, I am using at least 4oz of TW's product per wash, but I haven't noticed any wash induced marring added to the vehicle, and I'm actually wondering if TW purchased Optimum's first rinseless solution to their lineup or came up with something "slightly" original. It smells very similar to Optimum's first solution that I had experience with and I have to admit that I found no problem with that product at all.
 
FourStar Ultimate Paint Protection sealant because it's stunning on any vehicle, and makes the painted surface look like that coating that's on candy coated apples.
