Cleaning Lexus

[lexus0000]

Hi there lexus owner can someone tell me whats the best Shampoo to use when washing the car? And which is the best polish to use on a black car. At the moment i am using simoniz wash & wax to wash the car and black t-cut to polish the car. Polishing the car with t-cut is very hard work sometimes as it does not come off easily. Please help lexus owners. :eerrrmm:

Sorry if this topic has come up before.

I wash with pure water on spring, then I wax with turtlewax PTFE.

For the rest of the year, I wash with high pressure clean water. Works for me. Car is not 100% clean, but 95% in my eyes (you can see imperfections from 1m), but "washing" takes 10 minutes.

hi ya

i use Autoglym shampoo and super resin polish as it gives a really good finish. i also apply extra deep gloss finish on top as an extra layer of sealant, and it used to work really well on my black avensis.

turtlewax ice is also really really good for every day waxing (i apply it every time i was my car which is around once a week) as it is so easy to apply and remove. i only use t-cut once every 6 months to remove scratches and renew the finish, after claying the car with either turtlewax liquid clay bar or an actual clay bar.

basically i use Autoglym for everything except wheel wax, tyre polish and scratch removal - turtlewax is my choice for those.

hope that helps. as you can probably guess i am a little OCD about keeping mine better than showroom condition lol

I use any car shampoo, Autoglym polish, Dodo juice purple haze wax (for darker cars) and sealed off with Autoglym extra gloss protection. Think it does a good job on Black. Few pics here
