I'm sure there are far superior products out there but I have my limits too, I like that I can get Meguiar's Ultimate series locally at Canadian Tire or Wal-Mart and don't feel the need to spend more.

I even wait for 20% off sale.

I do use Zaino for Leather because I find Meguiar's too oily.

I normally buy my detailing stuff from the surrounding store (Wal-mart, Advance, Target, Pep Boys, etc...).
Method:Wash, Clay, Wax

I just clayed my new Honda for the first time today at 7200 miles. Waxed with Griots liquid poly using a random orbit polisher. Looking good now. Of course it started to rain on my drive home.... arghhhh

Nu Finish liquid. I prefer this stuff due to its workability, plus it serves a dual purpose as a solvent / cleaner for whatever crud gets stuck onto the paint. I take forever to clean / polish my cars because I do everything by hand and I have to get every speck of dirt off. Polish application is much more compliant in the shade, and I'm lucky enough to have a tree in my front yard to work under.
