It it possible to make a white car look that shiny and deep? I'm using OK wax (Meguair's Gold class paste), but I can only get my paint to be really bright and not that rich looking...

White is a challenge. Gold Class is a top over-the-counter wax but honestly, a one-step job isn't going to cut it. You may want to consider using ColorX and then Gold Class. It's likely you're not getting the reflections out of your paint because it isn't polished, which can be done easily but there isn't a whole lot available at your regular automotive chain.

question about cleaning leather interior.....

whats the best product to get "over the counter"?? there's a slight discoloration in the leather color... it kinda looks like what happens when someone tries to wipe a surface counter with a dirty cloth. thats not what happened, but thats the best example i could think of to describe what it kinda looks like.

You mean an oily stain? Lexol makes good leather cleaner stuff, as well as Meguiars. Try to get a cleaner and a conditioner in two bottles, I do not like two step "Cleaner/Conditioner" all-in-one products.

Also you can get a small leather brush to get stains out if they are really stubborn.

i have no clue if its an "oily stain".... its just that, that section of the seat got "darker" and these cleaners wont make a difference as to the color of the leather? i'm trying to use it on a very light gray color leather.
