Welcome fellow Hyper Blue owner!
I'm pretty much a beginner too at this and I gave up on even trying the Zaino stuff just because I find their product naming annoying. I'm sure it is good stuff, I just didn't want to try to figure it out.
I've tried Meguiar's and it is pretty good and easy to find locally.
Then I tried the Prima line of products from Detailer's Paradise and it's great! I think you can't go wrong with this stuff if you are looking for products that are easy to use and give you good results. You can get a starter kit from DP (
www.detailersparadise.com) or from Coopersport (
http://www.coopersport.com/usa/Coope...o-p-16311.html) but here's a basic list:
-Car wash soap = Prima Mystique (I haven't used this yet, but just received some the other day and can't wait to try it)
-Window cleaner = Prima Clarity and DP's microfiber window cleaner towel — this product is incredible!
-Rim Cleaner - I can't help you here, but I think DP sells a Wheel Cleaner that is supposed to be pretty good
-The entire Dashboard/plastic sideskirt on the outside cleaner = Prima Nero for Dashboard and interior and for plastic outside trim. (You can also look at Wizard's Black Renew - I just got some and will try it soon)
-Leather cleaner ( I have blue leather) = Can't help you here... I have leatherette and use Nero on it
-Wax = Prima Epic
-Good mits/appliers/towels/chamois.. etc. = Monster Fluffy towel for buffing off wax and Waffle Weave towels for drying
-An all around spray inbetween car washes? If there is one. = Prima Hydro and Prima Slick. Slick is a quick detailer and Hydro has similar properties but also has some wax properties. Hydro can be used as a spray on wax while the car is still wet and you are drying it. Both give a very nice shine. Get a good sheepskin wash mit (100% wool) and get two buckets with grit guards for washing.
good luck! I'm sure more people will weigh in.
