    Good work! Meguiar’s Quick Detailer spray is a staple product for me. I’ve been using it in on my Prius C in between washes since owning. Works excellent on the glass too.. way better than standard window cleaner (and it smells better).

    Yeah, smells great and lasts a long time on a small car like this. Use for anything on the car. Tires, paint, windows and engine.

    Geez, what’s the climate like in St Charles, Missouri? Do they use road salt?

    Just got car two weeks ago. Not sure where it was from. Rest of car rust free. Just drums. But they do use road salt here unfortunately. I have an unlimited touchless wash with undercarriage spray for 20 a month so should be fine. I use fluidfilm as well.
