Did I buy the "right" car wash products?

Kain · 10-23-2009, 04:41 PM

I bought the following today:

1 Armor All Wash Mitt
1 Meguiar's NXT Generation Car Wash
2 Meguiar's Water Magnet Microfiber Drying Towels
1 Meguiar's Quik Wheel Detailer
1 Meguiar's The Gold Class Ultra-Safe Wheel Brush
1 Meguiar's NXT Generation Glass Cleaner
1 Armor All Glass Coth

Any comments/opinions? The Meguiar's The Gold Class Ultra-Safe Wheel Brush scares me a little since the brush seems like it will scratch the wheels. Should I be worried? Secondly, I read that you should only buy car washes or wheel cleaners that DO NOT say they could be hazardous to your eyes or skin since these can be harsh on the car. Is this true? Both my wheel cleaner and car wash state they could irritate the eyes.

Be carefull with the wash mitt. I recently spent 7 hours polishing out scratches on my black E350. Got a new wash mitt that had a small section (maybe 1/2 inch) of nylon on the side for scrubing. After washing using a two bucket method with gritt guards it had some new scratches. It was the nylon scrubber on the side. I was very disappointed (that's a huge understatement). Get a wash mitt thats soft all over (check the cuff).

I use the gold class shampoo for washing but I'm going to try NXT next.
