        I also use (Castrol) SuperClean's AccuVision. It was discontinued a few years back, but it is gradually coming back it looks like http://www.superclean.com/product5.php . This stuff is better than RainX as it works just like RainX, minus the buffing part as it will just wipe away. If I was to tell everyone to try a non-Meg's product, AccuVision would be it.

        Yup! I have the same product. So easy to use.

              I have been using Meguiar's for about 18 years and have tried many other products but rarely stray from the Meguiar's product line, until recently. I hit up some amazing products.

              My "go to" LSP is now Blackfire Wet Diamond.

              I also like Wolfgang DGPS 3.0 (not as much as Wet Diamond though).

              I've recently tried the Zaino line, with Z2Pro, ZFX, Z6 and Z8 being the biggest actors. The look might be unparalleled (IME), but it is more work and can be finicky.

              I'm contemplating adding 3M's Ultrafina to my arsenal, as a final touch after M205.

              For my foam gun, my preference is Detailer's Pride Xtreme Foam Auto Shampoo.

                    I've got some midnight sun as well, but haven't had a chance to try it, let me know how it goes.

                              I've been branching out more and more from Meguiars stuff lately as I figure if I'm going to have to order online anyway, might as well take advantage of the other stuff out there!

                              Zymol Glasur - Looks amazing on dark paints. On light paints, it looks better than average, but not as good as MPPP (1st choice on lights) or NXT2.0.
                              Mothers Back-To-Black - been using it for years and absolutely love it. It leaves a nice light shine behind and really makes vinyl or rubber trim look it's best.
                              Windex - It works, it's cheap, it's readily available ANYWHERE. I find it easier to use than Stoners IG, but that's just IMHO.

                              I'm going to have to get a Leatherique kit for my old neglected leather, Gold Class just isn't softening it at a reasonable pace. The leather is softer than when I got the car, but still feels like plastic.

                              I really want to try the Menzerna lineup soon. Intensive Polish will probably be my next purchase after Leatherique, followed by Menzerna MFJ.

                              Like AeroCleanse, I'm not brand-loyal at all. If MPPP came back as a zaino product I'd buy it. Hell, if it came back as a Turtle Wax product I'd have to blindfold myself and buy it.
                              If a tree falls in the forest and there's nobody there to record the event, how can you be certain that there was a tree or even a forest to begin with?

                                Be sure to use the ammonia-free version. Ammonia is bad for interior surfaces (vinyl, leather, plastic, etc.) and really bad for paint. I would suggest that you use an automotive glass cleaner as they don't contain ammonia.
