Default Kit brand car wash

I used some kit car wash, it's yellow in a jug looking thing, and washed my car at home with a sponge...whole car took about 10 minutes, and about five minutes to dry with chamois. This is the shiniest my car has been. I dunno if it helped, but last weekend I used Meguiars ColorX, so maybe that has something to do with it, even though I didn't notice a change last week. I highly reccomend this wash, and using a genuine shammy instead of synthetic (such as The Absorber) works much better IMO. I'll post some pics up later with my shitty Fuji Finepix 3.2 MP.

It was the wash and wax, and it feels so smooth, but I'm gonna wash it again next weekend following with NXT tech wax, and then a layer of Mothers wax...the synthetic wax will add protection and shine, while the caranuba will add depth and gloss...I love washing/waxing my car, so the 5star shine system is not for me.

I hope you mean the Mother's pure paste carnauba. Otherwise, the cleaners in their wax will clean the NXT off

I have used Kit for over 3 years, it's THE best wash I've ever used. Before my friend recommended it, I've used this pink bubblegummy stuff that my other friend gave me from the BMW dealership.

Yeah, it's some sweet stuff...lasts for 32washes if you mix one ounce to each gallon, and two gallons is usually enough.

Eh maybe I can't get the settings right, but all the pictures I take at night look like ass, and when I use flash at night, they're even worse.

Any links on how to setup a digi cam?

I still lub the Kit.

I tried their Carnuba paste wax. me no rikey. It's really liquidy and when it hazes, it gets REALLY messy (powdery) so just in case you think of picking up their wax, pass on it. I suggest Blitz Wax.
