nothing really... every product has an application. and why is everyone dissing me clean? i got one 2 years ago and works great maintaining the family cars... no spots or streaks. works pretty nicely.
 
Hmm, Eagle One Nano wax. Then maybe NXT, it works, but not as good as #21 or #20.

I might get owned for this, but I really don't like that Poorboys line that much, I bought some off a member of another board, and I wasn't that impresssed.
 
Off the top of my head...

Turtle wax - even when I had no clue about detailing I could tell this stuff was junk.
CA water blade - One pass and I tossed it.
Waxmaster Pro buffer

But by using those items I was led to search for better tools and techniques for detailing. So in a way I'm glad I used them. All part of learning I suppose.

I second that!

Glare Polish. I held out for a year and one day decided to order it.
I have been a pro detailer for over 12 years now and have spent lots of money on crap.
It has to be free for me to try it now or I have to see the results in several different situations for me to buy it.

Got in a pinch and bought the NXT quick detailer and it SUCKS! Save your money and buy a gallon of FK425 for under $30 bucks. The best QD I've used for the money-----by far!

YOu're kidding? I love using my chamois!!!
 
I've always liked chamois also. My only complaint is the tearing after a while.

Durability, and it lost its looks in like a week or two. The spray wax is borrible, might as well just use regular NXT, and the qd'er sucks.
 
-Zaino: too much money for a product that works just as well as any other sealant. Zaino nazis also get on my nerves.
-NXT QD
-Pinnacle black onyx tire gel: very expensive and slings real bad. I now use AA tire foam and Extreme gel.
-P21s wax: looks nice, but no durability
-Megs #7: impossible to use
-DP wheel glaze: on my clear coated wheels a conventional sealant lasts much longer

That's all I can think of right now. Everything else worked fine, I just might have replaced it with something more economical.
 
Wheel Wax - pricey and not worth it
Anything with "Glaze" in the name
LC Blue and Black pads - collecting dust
WolfGang - the whole line! average or below for inflated prices
XMT pad conditioner - yeah right
Megs #1 - dust that looks like rust and a lot of it
Eagle One Tire Shine

Now the yin to that yang, products I love - anything Duragloss, Eagle One all wheel and tire cleaner, Presta 1500, Megs #84, OP, PS, Target vroom MF towels, Lexol - all 3 products, Armour All - for wheelwells, Mothers mini powerball and metal polishes, CA water blade - anybody that doesn't like theirs can send to me, Stoners Invisible Glass, Porter Cable, Makita, Painters platform - bought at Home Depot, 20.5" with extendable legs to 30", and my 1000w work light.
 
Turtle wax = no good
AutoGlym bumper care = dust magnet
Flitz powerball = dust like crazy
Meguiars Vinyl shine = messy, messy, messy
Probably alot more, but its thrown or given away to some one i dont like much
