Exclamation Need exterior paint maintenance on 2009 C63 (also interoir) (please help)

Hi. I have a black 09 c63 and ran out of my wax (I was using Meguirs Carnauba wax but it wasn't good. I just had to use it until I was done with it)

I wanted to ask you guys about some products you can possibly recommend.
  • Wax
  • Wheel cleaner (i want to reach inside the wheel but I don't know what brush is the best...)
  • Wheel brush
  • Leather cleaner (I have black inside everything, but there are creases starting to appear and I want to make it less visible)
  • Microfiber (I am using autozone microfibers, but they suck)

Price friendly would be a +


Thank you so much!


Edit* I am aware about chemical guys and autogeek.com but need to know what you guys can recommend for a black car like mine thank you!

Thanks a lot! I heard about P21S but never knew about them. What brush do you use? Do you take off your entire wheel to clean it or something?

I believe P21S makes several products. What you want for your wheels is the P21S Wheel Cleaner kit. Comes with a spray bottle and a small soft sponge. I find that I don't need anything else to clean my wheels. Just water, P21S, and the sponge that comes in the kit. No need to remove the wheels.

Also the autogeek sale ends in 9 hours or does it mean the countdown is 9 more hours until sale starts?

Purchases look good. You just need a bucket with a grate at the bottom to allow the dirt to settle to the bottom and a good soap and a hose.

I use this method to keep the car scratches-free after the wash. I think its the safest way to wash a car
