Car maintenance ?
It has been two weeks now since I took possession of my 93 coupe. The car was given to in incredible condition. My GM dealer told me it was the best 93 he had seen since 93. I realize that this is more than just car. I want and need to keep this Vette in the same or better condition. What are the best car care products out there. Leather, vinyl, tires, glass, rubber. What are members using?

I'm partial to Lexol products, although there are many good products. The better ones are a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. That being said, however, I've also heard that for dashboards and similar vinyl surfaces, spray furniture wax containing carnuba (sp) wax in it is best, as it seals the pores of the "pleather" and keeps it from shrinking. Anyhting you do is better than doing nothing, but I wouldn't use Armorall on my car.

Just be sure the products you select are compatible with the finishes on your car. For example, some paint and metal cleaners are not "clear coat safe". Read the directions and applications carefully to be sure they are correct for your car.
Also, if you are considering NCRS judging in the future, some products result in making semigloss areas too shiny such as under the hood, tires and vinyl areas. This will most likely result in deducts. The owners manual will also provide some guidance.Comment

Frank, I do a fair amount of detailing on my own Corvettes and other people's as well. I have found the entire Zaino line of Car Care Products to be outstanding. Easy to use and durable. Go to their websight and they explain every product they offer. If you are confused ask away.Comment
