And in your opinion what's the best stuff that you have ever used or currently using?

I use this carwash stuff called "kit" wash & wax" It's bright yellow, very thick and works sooo good. It smells good and when I rinse my car off the water just beads off

I have used Meguairs Deep Crystal and Gold Class. I like the Gold Class better but I go through about a gallon of car wash soap a month (I wash about 4-5 times a week in summer) and it gets expensive, but it does provide good results so it's worth it.

I use meguiars as well...My only comment on it is it's not as 'foamy' as other car wash products but it's still a good product and does the job well...

i LOVE my car and anyone will tell you i keep it super spotless, i use meguairs soft gel wash to clean off dirt and bird poop (damn you seagulls!!!!) then meguairs polish to add shine and remove any imperfections, then meguairs carnauba wax, to add some gloss and protect the polish. after this, the suns rays should frizzle your eyes when looking at your car. helpful tip, do everything in the shade! or even at sunset or at night if your really hardcore about it.

Just washed my car today with Meguiars Gold Class Shampoo and then waxed. So tired, but car looks awesome. I hadn't waxed in a while and the spots a I missed are really noticible (^_^). Do it in the shade and be meticulous.
